Neighbours couldn't open their windows because of a "foul smell" emanating from an abandoned house.
The property, in Margaret Road in L4, had been empty for five years, with an overgrown garden and a pungent aroma which caused locals to keep all their windows firmly shut. The house also had a broken window at the front and waste at the rear.
Another abandoned property, in Scorton Street in L6, has also been empty for five years and was found with a yard full of waste. The owners of both of the properties have not been prosecuted by Liverpool City Council.
