The home was found to be nearly a metre too tall (Image: LDRS) A couple faces being kicked out of their home after officials found it was nearly a metre too tall. Owners have been ordered to tear down a newbuild detached property in Prestwich, Bury, that planning chiefs state was built 75cm too high. The two-bedroom home is occupied by married tenants who said they only recently discovered they would need to vacate the home.

They must not find a new home as the property - which planning chiefs state is also built five feet in the wrong direction - has been earmarked for demolition. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
