Sent to Reading Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8425537.

This caravan has been abandoned next to historic tourist attraction. Spoiling views along Chestnut Walk and views of scenic river from Kings Road Bridge. Not sure if someone is living inside.

Updates

Are you sure it is abandoned? It is plugged in. I assumed it was part of on site security for the Christmas lights in the Abbey and in the gardens.

Maybe it is? I looks very unprofessional. We thought the travellers had parked up. Why did they not park with the storage compound? From our perspective: It ruins the Ruins.
