City wardens have been called to a house in Leicester after a pile of rubbish at the front was stacked so high, it nearly blocked out the front windows of the property.

Officers from Leicester City Council went to a terraced house on Upperton Road in Westcotes. They found doors, hardboard, black bin bags and cardboard piled up in the front yard.
