Police act to shut down Boston house over drug-related activity and anti-social behaviour
The property on Shaw Road in the town is the second to be granted a closure order by the courts in recent weeks over similar concerns.
A property in Granville Street was shut down at the end of last month after what was described as numerous complaints about drug use and associated anti-social behaviour.
