'Eyesore' caravan torched and abandoned near tower block shut down by police

A caravan has become an "eyesore" after being torched and abandoned on a residential street.

The caravan is reported to have been set on fire around six weeks ago on Church Street in Wallasey, Wirral, and has been left there ever since. It is currently parked near to the derelict tower block Charter House, which was shut down by police and the council this week following reports of crime and anti-social behaviour.

Denis Knowles is one of many local residents who are calling for the council to remove the abandoned caravan on Church Street, which is now burnt out with smashed windows. The 72-year-old said he was walking his dog one evening in June when he noticed the caravan was on fire.
