One partygoer called Ross said the rave was a “celebration of youths getting together”.

He added: "It's especially special because the whole Brexit and all of the new EU things.

"We will never leave mess. We hate, I mean everyone that you see here, will be extremely incorporated with the XR protesters and do not want to see anything wrong happening with Mother Earth.

"And um, XR, is really important and what we’re doing here is nothing more than anything else that you’ll do on your own land.

"It’s just us coming on private, uh public land, having a party, cleaning up, leaving, nothing is left."

"One car full of revellers crashed as the youths tried to make a getaway.
