A traveller camp remains in place after it popped up in a town centre.
Nine caravans pulled up on wasteland in Ashford next to the Elwick Place leisure complex on Wednesday afternoon.
Ashford Borough Council (ABC) is still working on ways to clear the impromptu caravan site in Elwick Road, which is next to the Travelodge hotel.
On Wednesday, the authority said it was taking "appropriate action".
The area currently occupied by the travellers is set to be converted into 200 homes as part of Elwick Place's second phase.
