Justices extend closure orders on two Wigan borough trouble spot homes

They ruled that 8 Thackery Place in Worsley Mesnes should remain the subject of a closure order for another three months after hearing it has been a magnet for anti-social behaviour and neighbour complaints.

And the same ruling was also made against 245 Maple Crescent in Leigh which also had its closure order extended by the same amount.

Anyone other than residents or authorised visitors (such as the emergency services) attending those homes during the ban period can face criminal prosecution.
