Working with housing association Home Group, contractors removed four skips and nine tipper trucks full of debris from the garden of the property in Milfoil Drive.
Eastbourne Borough Council said that the residents had ignored council requests to tidy the land and fix broken garden fences following complaints from neighbours and a Section 215 notice was issued.

“We do not take enforcement action lightly but will do so whenever necessary, such as in this case where clearance has brought a tangible sense of relief to people living in the area.”
