ksmithA farmer in Redhill, Great Britain, built a castle, then hid it behind hay bales. He skirted some zoning regs, it seemed, and tried to take advantage of a loophole by hiding his castle for four years, after which he thought it would be grandfathered in. Or something.
The council wants the building near Redhill some 30 km south of London to be demolished, along with an associated conservatory, marquee structure, wooden bridge, patio, decking and tarmac racecourse.
"It looks like a mock-Tudor house from the front and it's got two turrets at the back," the spokeswoman said. "I understand there is also a cannon."
