Travellers have remained pitched up at a park in Bicester for almost 48 hours.
The group of travellers arrived at the park off Manston Close near the Lidl store in Launton Road with the first reports of their presence surfacing on Friday (May 17) evening.
Thames Valley Police has since visited the park over the weekend and officers have issued code of conduct paperwork.

The travellers remained in the park on Sunday (May 19) afternoon, the force has confirmed.
County councillor for Bicester, Donna Ford, said she was made aware at 9pm on Friday before alerting both Bicester Town Council and Oxfordshire County Council.
It is understood the land is owned by Bicester Town Council.
Ms Ford said: “I have spoken to both [councils] who are working to resolve the situation.
“The police had already been made aware by a resident.
“They will follow the usual procedures for the situation and hope to have things resolved as quickly as possible.”
The Oxford Mail has approached Oxfordshire County Council and Bicester Town Council for comment on the situation.
