Residents on a Nottinghamshire street say they are pleased their neighbours have been removed after a Closure Order was placed on the property. Ashfield District Council and Nottinghamshire Police secured the order for a property on Warnadene Road, Sutton in Ashfield, following numerous reports from the public about criminal activity and violence at the address.
When asked about his experiences with the property, retired, Collin Jarrett, 86, said: "We only noticed they they got a lot of visitors and people breaking windows and stuff like that. It's been over the last year or so but we did know that there were procedures going on to get them out. "I'm not surprised but I'm glad it's sorted." Councillor Helen-Ann Smith, Ashfield District Council, Executive Lead Member for Community Safety and Crime Reduction, described the property as "having a detrimental impact on the local community."
