Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 22 Oct, 17:02 · Archive

Thames Valley Police obtained a court closure order for a residential property in Faringdon linked to anti-social behaviour.

Thames Valley Police officers from the Faringdon neighbourhood team attended Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, 21 October and obtained a closure order for a residential property in the area. The order is a legal restriction that prevents anyone other than the homeowner and certain named individuals from entering the address.

Closure orders are typically applied for by police or councils when a property becomes linked to anti-social behaviour, nuisance or drug use. Police said activity around the Faringdon home had caused 'negative impacts' on the community.

A Thames Valley Police spokesperson said: 'We are committed to protecting residents and will not tolerate behaviour that causes distress to those living nearby.' The force added that anyone found breaching the closure order will be arrested and dealt with robustly.
