One resident said: “We have been woken up as early as 5.30am with them all singing and shouting.
“It happens every weekend and sometimes there are up to 40 youngsters there. They are all teenagers, around the ages of 14 and 15 and a mixture of boys and girls.
“Question is, do their parents know what they are up to? Do they know they are camping out here?”
