Repeat toilet flusher given 28 days to leave home - Update

A woman has been told she has 28 days to leave her council house home because she is too noisy and keeps repeatedly flushing her toilet at night.

Mwynwen Jones, 57, of Tremadog, Gwynedd, had asked Caernarfon County Court to extend a notice issued last month after a High Court challenge.

Judge John Brehrens had backed Gwynedd council's decision to seek a possession order to evict her.



He said: "Whilst flushing a toilet may not be a nuisance, plainly it may be so if it is done repeatedly and at antisocial hours."

Mrs Jones barrister, Caroline Harris, had said the council's decision was "irrational".

She said Mrs Jones had got into the habit of flushing the toilet twice after use, but the sounds coming from her home were just run-of-the-mill "household noises".
