An 'anti-social' mum, at the centre of noise complaints, has had a ban on visitors at her home extended.

The order prevents anyone but Lucy Coleman and her child from going inside her house on Manor Road, Edenbridge.

Sevenoaks District Council requested a partial closure of the semi-detached West Kent Housing home in August after it received several reports of anti-social behaviour.

The complaints involved loud noise and allegations of illegal activity at the rented accommodation, by both Coleman and her visitors.

Maidstone Magistrates Court granted a three-month extension to the order on Wednesday following a number of breaches by the mother, including having a visitor, making loud banging noises and shouting.

If any visitors are found at the location between now and February 27, 2020, they will be committing a criminal offence.

Kelly Webb, community safety manager for the local authority, said: "Community safety is a top priority for the council and, through partnership working with Kent Police and West Kent Housing, we have been able to extend the partial closure of the property, reducing the risk of anti-social behaviour at this address."
