A number of patrols in the Lake District have caught people camping illegally.

Police, Westmorland & Furness Council and National Trust representatives carried out the patrols in hotspot areas of the South Lakes.

South Lakes Police said details of several people had been taken with the view of issuing fines.

Earlier this week, agencies said they would begin a clamp down on illegal camping and anti-social behaviour in the Lake District.

Visitor management officers from the Lake District National Park Authority will patrol our most popular areas across the park in a number of planned patrols, including evenings and weekends.

Regular staff and rangers from the National Park Authority, National Trust and local councils will deliver multiple weekend patrols throughout the season.

The National Trust has also recruited two new engagement rangers who will patrol, including at weekends, helping visitors enjoy the area responsibly and safely.

Cumberland and Westmorland and Furness councils said they have also committed resources to tackle anti-social behaviour and environmental damage associated with camping, littering and fires or barbeques, and support enforcement of Public Space Protection Orders where necessary
