Described by one resident as a "lovely place" that is "going downhill", we visited Langley Mill to speak to locals on their opinions on the rise in anti-social behaviour in the village. Langley Mill, in the Amber Valley district, is currently under a police dispersal order after a series of incidents of anti-social behaviour and disorder that have been reported to Derbyshire police, reports Derbyshire Live.
Residents of the Derbyshire village have expressed their concerns over the lack of places for children to positively spend their time during school holidays following an increase in anti-social behaviour incidents. The common initial thing we were told by residents was the lack of options to occupy children outside of school hours.
A local business owner said: "They have nothing to do in Langley Mill. So, they get a bike, or steal one and race up and down the pavements causing danger to people walking along."
