Council officials have shut down a property in Cambourne Grove, Gateshead, following numerous reports of antisocial behaviour from local residents. Gateshead Council confirmed the intervention on 27 March, 2026, aimed at restoring peace and safety for those living in the neighbourhood.

This enforcement action prevents anyone from entering the home for a period of three months. Exceptions are only permitted for emergency services, council representatives, and agents of the landlord.

The move follows ongoing complaints from people living nearby who have been affected by the disruption. The local authority has reassured the public that they are committed to taking swift and decisive action to address behaviour that negatively impacts the quality of life in the community.
