An inquest into the death of well-known East Oxford man Leslie Belcher has opened.

The 51-year-old died at Lucy Faithfull House, in Speedwell Street, on October 31. Police treated the death as unexplained.

Oxford Coroner’s Office opened an inquest to establish the cause of his death on November 13.

Mr Belcher received an antisocial behaviour order in 2010 after causing trouble to neighbours in East Oxford.

His funeral took place yesterday at the Church of the Holy Family in Blackbird Leys.
