West Mercia Police have issued a closure order on a house in Hereford.

The order was granted by Worcester Magistrates' Court at a hearing on Friday.

Officers applied for the order against the property in Longmeadow, Hereford, following a number of reports of criminal and anti-social behaviour.

Various incidents at the property have been a cause of distress and upset for many years, both for immediate neighbours and the wider community.

Access to the whole of the premises by anybody, including the legal owner, is prohibited from now until 23 September 2022.
