A property in Wadebridge has become a no-go zone after reports from the community revealed that visitors to the address were responsible for causing antisocial behaviour (ASB) in and around the premises. The three-month partial closure order was granted on Monday 2 February, making it an offence for anyone other than the named residents to enter the premises.
