There were several caravans there this morning (Monday, July 24), and police said it had been contacted about the travellers the previous Friday.
A Peterborough City Council spokeswoman said: “We are aware of the travellers outside the crematorium - we’re working with the police to ensure the unauthorised encampment is moved on as soon as possible.”
She added that the case was being treated as a priority because of where the caravans are parked.
