Police close address in Derbyshire village linked with anti-social behaviour and drugs after making series of arrests

The Bolsover and Clowne Safer Neighbourhood Team have successfully secured the closure of an address in Creswell.

An SNT spokesperson said: “The team have been working hard to close a property in Creswell that has been associated with anti-social behaviour and drug use/supply. Over the last week the team have been liaising closely with Bolsover District Council and their anti-social behaviour team, and also their housing team, with a view of obtaining a closure order.

“With the council taking the lead and progressing the application, all departments have supplied evidence, statements and also CCTV footage. The amount of evidence produced assisted in the application and ultimately satisfied the magistrates, who heard the case that the address was causing issues within the community.
