Security ramps up in town awaiting arrival of 600 lone male asylum seekers

Residents are in revolt over the plans for Crowborough Army Training Camp in East Sussex, with thousands of people turning out every week for noisy protests.

Today, guards with dogs were seen patrolling the site, where a secondary security fence has been erected alongside a series of residential huts.
