Landlord Lee Locking had the surprise of his life when a tenant returned the keys to his flat, having left it to rot for the past five years.
The floor was nowhere to be seen as every room was rampant with piles of rubbish. Bags of cans and bottles, old clothes, mountains of rotting food and cat faeces in the bathtub; the Wales Online photographer said it was the "worst place" he'd been during a 20-year career.
Lee has been left devastated by the condition of the flat. He claims the tenant told him that he could keep their £400 deposit to clean up the mess, but Lee was shocked to see just how extensive the mess really was.
