A hundred travellers hoping to throw a party at a pub in Stratford were evicted overnight by police.

The travellers had brought alcohol and a DJ along to the The Carpenters Arms, according to a police spokesman.

They had already been removed from an area of Chingford, he added, and were moved on again by police from the venue in Carpenters Road.
