Nine pictures of the crowds at Burley-in-Wharfedale today

This was the scene at the River Wharfe today following Ilkley dispersal order

Pictures from Burley-in-Wharfedale show crowds of people spending the day at the River Wharfe - after a dispersal order was imposed on neighbouring Ilkley.

Residents of Ilkley described seeing teenagers arriving 'laden with booze' on Wednesday before a dispersal order was imposed on the town. The order, which applies to the town centre, gives uniformed officers and police community support officers (PCSOs) the power to direct someone to leave the area and not return to the area for a specified period. These pictures show officers moving people on from the River Wharfe in Ilkley, while crowds cooled off further down the river at Burley-in-Wharfedale:
