The day West Norfolk Council began demolition of £250,000 home that broke planning laws

From the Cambs Times 24

A nine year planning wrangle came to an end when enforcement officers ripped down a £250,000 home belonging to gypsies in the Fens.

The two caravans, which were said to be 18 inches too wide, were dismantled after a long-running planning dispute.

Rodney Wilson and his partner, Pamela Wenn, were on their way out when the 15-strong enforcement team turned up with police at their home at Walsoken, near Wisbech on Thursday (June 12).

They worked quickly to dismantle the immaculate park home on Broad End Road, whilst Mr Wilson and Ms Wenn were frantically left to pack their personal belongings whilst watching their house taken down around them.
