Anger over derelict Aspley house attracting rats and criminals'

Neighbours have voiced their frustration over an 'eyesore' house in Aspley, saying the derelict property is attracting "vandalism and pests". Residents living in Allendale Avenue in the Nottingham estate said kids were "always breaking in".

The house has been under the same ownership since 1984, according to HM Land Registry documents. However, locals say it has been unoccupied for at least 15 years.

"Kids are always in there breaking in, it's just an eyesore, it's a mess," said Collette Drain, who lives on the street. The 45-year-old, along with fellow neighbours, said she was frustrated by the owner's lack of action after being contacted by authorities.
