I have a property in Lewis Rd lynmore
It’s on a back section and share a drive with the front tenanted house.
Over the past 10 months the neighbours have been
Leaving rubbish, drinking and smoking (not just cigarettes)
Urinating on the driveway. They are also endlessly parking there obstructing my way to the house.
When confronted I have been verbally abused.
I have contacted landlord, police, tenancy services, and council
Any suggestions on how I might fix this would be appreciated
