A national paper printed a two page artist's impression before the house was built.

Arrows pointed to the windows, saying kitchen, pool, dining room, gym, and so on

And....

Because Macclesfield BC are a bunch of arse. The village where he lives is full of horrid new build mansions like this with all the original old property knocked down to build them. Shame its a beautiful village and ruined by all the development.

Seriously - I wouldn't. How could you live anywhere that made you laugh when you pulled up? It's just a facking great big caravan.

As long as she doesn't try to get my green plastic y-fronts off.

Bit like what Giggs!

It is a bit of a shame really, but the houses they are putting in the places are rather nice.

Just a shame they couldn't build them elsewhere.

I'm afraid its common practice where I live. Leigh Road in Worsley, Manchester, also known as 'Millionaires row'. People buy the houses, rip them down and build a bigger one in place of it.

It's like keepin up with the Jones' gone extreme.

If I had the sort of money they have I'd bring Frank Lloyd Wright back from the dead and get him to design it for me

Quite apart form reanimating the dead, you'd probably have at least as much trouble getting a FLW type design through planning as you would some neo georgian monstrosity.

I totally agree Tonker.

It's disgraceful that people get lured by pound signs, it's disgraceful that "new money" comes in and destroys the character/heritage/history/whatever oof the village and it's disgraceful that money talks when it comes to getting planning approved for these new builds.
