Hide AdPC Simon Lomas of Buxton Safer Neighbourhood Team said: “We believe the persistent anti-social behaviour from the residents and visitors of this address has had a detrimental effect on the lives of all of those living around them.
“Over a prolonged period, there has been persistent reports and information relating to people visiting the address including drug use, drug dealing, anti-social behaviour through vehicle use and noise nuisance which will not be accepted.
“As a result of great work between police and the community who have come forward to reject this sort of behaviour, we have been able to secure a full closure order which we hope will significantly reduce the impact on other residents, giving them the confidence to live safely and securely in their homes and when out in the street.
“The neighbourhood team in Buxton feel this Closure Order sends a clear message that drug-related anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated in Fairfield, Buxton and the wider High Peak”.
