A HOUSE being repeatedly taken over by anti-social behaviour has been partially sealed by order of a magistrates' judge – after neighbours raised concerns to the police.
The order on a house in Lynch Hill Lane, Slough, was granted on Friday, August 5, by Reading Magistrates' Court under Section 80 of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Disorder Act 2014.
Police applied for the order against the property following complaints of anti-social behaviour.

The partial closure prevents anyone other than the specified persons listed on the order from entering the property for a period of three months.
Anyone who enters the house will commit an offence and would be liable on summary conviction to imprisonment, a fine, or both.
Thames Valley Police said: "Acting on reports of persistent ASB, Slough North Neighbourhood Policing Team have successfully applied for a Closure Order at a residential premises in Britwell. The team, and their response colleagues, will now be making regular checks to ensure the order is being complied with."
