A family of Travellers alleged to be "dangerously" camped against the boundary fence of an electricity station were ordered to leave the site by the High Court yesterday.

Mr Larry Donald, secretary of the ESB, said in an affidavit that the location was dangerous to the Travellers.

Mr Justice Lavan granted the ESB an interlocutory order restraining Patrick and Mary O'Brien from trespassing on its lands.
