Sleepless in Swiss Cottage

Posted by news desk in Local News, 19th August 2008, 9:33pm

Reisdents living next door to a Swiss Cottage park are demanding action after a summer of sleepless nights.

Residents living near the open space behind Swiss Cottage Leisure Centre are fed up with rowdy youths congregating in the early hours.

They are calling for the removal of benches and want the area closed at night.

The park has just been designated as a dispersal zone, which gives police the power to move people on if they are causing problems. But residents say it is a matter for Camden Council to solve.

The council said very few complaints had been made over the past three years, but residents' views were being taken seriously.

To report anti-social behaviour to the Safer Neighbourhoods team call 020 8721 2755.
