Surrey Police and Elmbridge Council successful obtained the order on 176 Terrace Road, due to persistent nuisance caused by the tenants, their friends and family.

The house is now boarded up with notices informing the public it was closed to protect the area from more antisocial acts.

PC Carl Aplin and PC Dominic Elvy from Elmbridge Safer Neighbourhood Team, said: "This is a great outcome for the residents of Terrace Road who suffered at the hands of the tenants of number 176.

"Neighbours had to suffer persistent noise, parties, drug use, dogs barking and domestic incidents from those residing at the property.

"Surrey Police in partnership with our partner agencies will not tolerate this kind of behaviour and will take strong and robust action."
