The daughter of NHS fundraising hero Captain Tom Moore has been ordered to demolish an unauthorised building at her home. Planners rejected the scheme for a spa and pool at the house in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire.
Hannah Ingram-Moore, 52, and her husband Colin applied in 2021 for permission to build a Captain Tom Foundation Building in the grounds of their home. The L-shaped building was given the green light, and in a design and access and heritage statement it was described as to be used partly “in connection with The Captain Tom Foundation and its charitable objectives”.
However the building was then put up not in accordance with the plans - instead it was a larger C-shaped structure and now planners have ordered it to be knocked down after retrospective permission for the larger size and containing a spa pool was refused.
