Residents living in a block of apartments in Salford where rent is as high as £970 say they are living in ‘squalor’. Tenants in the Richmond Hill apartments say the building has become rat infested, unsafe and unkempt.
Now, ‘frustrated and fed up’, residents have hit out at landlord Irwell Valley Homes for failing to address their concerns about the state of the building over the past few years.
The housing firm say they are working on an ‘improvement plan’ in a bid to make Richmond Hill a ‘decent place’ to live. The Manchester Evening News has visited the apartment block which is located on St Stephen Street near the busy Chapel Street and links Salford to Manchester city centre.
