Wiltshire Police Slam Door on Liden Crime Havens

Wiltshire Police have cracked down hard on Swindon’s troublesome Liden area. Two homes on Galsworthy Close have been shut tight after ongoing drug dealing and anti-social behaviour made life a nightmare for locals. This bold move aims to restore peace and order.

Strict Closure Orders Hit Trouble Spots

Swindon Magistrates Court handed down two closure orders—one on February 27, another on March 3—barring everyone but residents, emergency crews, and authorised housing staff from entering these properties until June 2026. Break the rules and you could face up to 51 weeks behind bars, hefty fines, or both.

Police Crack Down, Need Liden Locals to Stay Vigilant

  • Patrols boosted to keep a sharp eye on the area.
  • Residents urged to report any suspicious activity straight away.
  • Concerned? Contact Wiltshire Police via their website, call 101, or dial 999 if a crime is unfolding.
  • Want to stay anonymous? Ring Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Wiltshire Police mean business. Their clear warning: stir trouble in Liden’s streets and face serious consequences.
