Frustrated residents said they've "had enough" after gangs alleged ongoing antisocial behaviour at a former care home.
The building on Newby Drive has been empty for a decade after the care home that used to occupy the site closed in around 2011. Since then, it has been sold off to a private owner but nothing has been done with the building, leaving it to become what neighbours previously described as "a nuisance" and "a pain in the backside" while Knowsley Council has had to step in to clear the site of rubbish.
Since then, fresh concerns have been raised as nearby residents call for action. For many years, residents say they have been dealing with fires, fly-tipping and youths trespassing on the area, with some kids throwing bricks at nearby homes.
