Six-foot walls of junk inside the filthy house of eviction-threatened hoarder (...who used to be a housekeeper)

The path to the door of olive Taylor is a barrel of waste decomposition, it is worth years of containers stacked almost as high as 87-year-old herself.

No wonder, then, that these are the first pictures from inside the house of the hoarder Brighton - used to be a housewife in the Royal Navy.

Inside, his town house is nothing but the shape of the vessel, trash bags lining the stairs and a two meter high wall of garbage by the bottom completely out of bounds.






Old clothes, tins of sweets and children's toys are piled almost to the ceiling.

Mrs. Taylor has been told you have a month to get rid of a mountain like waste in your garden - or face eviction.

Brighton and Hove City Council slapped with the order after neighbors complained about the piles of rotting food containers of fruit, and newspapers outside the home.

But she claims that her treasure is destined for recycling and has raised over £ 90,000 in sales of scrap since 1978.







Mrs. Taylor gives money to charity Guide Dogs for the Blind.

In 1993, eight truckloads of garbage were removed from the front yard of Evelyn Terrace, and in 2003 was also threatened with eviction.

But Mrs. Taylor - who was a housekeeper at Royal Naval Air Station Ford in West Sussex, during the war - has refused offers of help from a neighborhood scheme.

The pensioner only says there is no danger to health or the sign of any bugs in your home.

She said: 'I have the intention to contest the order. They can not interfere with my business.

"It's mostly cans and I have a recycling system. But I can not go out in the cold."
