A couple of months ago the Morning Star ran my article that begged for my eco home to not be torn down. I had applied for a One Planet Development (OPD). Two refusals in, I was at the point of waiting for a planning appeal hearing.
Of course, due to Covid-19, the hearing was cancelled the day before it was due to take place. Foolishly, in hindsight, I agreed to proceed via written representations.
Then I got the email I had been dreading. I had again been refused. Not only that, but the enforcement order was to stay in place. I have nine months to take everything down, even the agricultural stuff like the polytunnel and goat house, the workshop and the caravan; everything must go, as the Manic Street Preachers once said.
