Court listings show that Garry Douglas Davies, 55, was taken to court this week for an ‘application for a closure order (nuisance or disorder)’

‘The activities of those visiting this address have had an enormous impact on the local community which is why we worked in partnership with Fareham Borough Council to take action.
‘We would like to thank the local community for their help and patience while we worked with partners to gather the evidence needed to secure this partial closure order.’
The police work closely with partners to tackle anti-social behaviour, and anyone concerned about this sort of activity where they live should contact their neighbourhood policing team on 101 or contact them via: hampshire.police.uk/ro/report/asb/asb/report-antisocial-behaviour.
