Trebus, Edmund:
Trebus had been “a collector” all his
life and he was often seen pushing a
hand cart filled with his latest acquisitions, which he would carefully sort
into separate piles in his garden and
home. One of Trebus’ major loves
was Elvis Presley, and he managed
to collect and store away almost
every single record ever recorded by
the artist. In his eighties, living alone
in a run-down house in Crouch End
in north London, he was constantly
in trouble with the envirronmental
health department of the London
Borough of Haringey, because of
complaints about the rubbish surrounding his home. He lived in a
tiny area on the ground floor in his
house, surrounded by piles of rubbish, because he never threw anything away. In the BBC documentary
series A Life Of Grime, Trebus was
repeatedly shown arguing with
council workers who had been instructed to clear his house of the 515
cubic yards of rubbish it contained.
He was eventually re-housed at the
Trentfield Nursing Home in Southgate where he died at the age of 83.
Following his death, the BBC broadcast an hour-long tribute Mr Trebus:
