A couple have have finally won their battle against a local council after their home was built next door to a busy dual carriageway.
Just metres away from the 70mph road, Jackie McCormack and her husband, James, had been shocked when they bought the home after discovering the extent of the noise and pollution.
Purchasing the property in February 2021, the detached home next to the A446 in Warwickshire had cost the family £325,000, and was supposed to be their dream home. However, the couple had quickly complained to the council after finding cars and lorries would thunder past their garden at all hours.
