Three-month closure order granted on South Normanton property after suspected criminal activity
The order for the property on Beech Grove was issued on August 13 after a hearing at Chesterfield Justice Centre.
The case was brought before the court by Bolsover District Council, after work by the South Normanton and Pinxton Safer Neighbourhood Policing Team, reports about anti-social and illegal activity, and concerns about the address.

It prevents any person from entering the address other than authorised personnel from the police or council.
