A dad-of-four has been left confused and frustrated after his local council started to build on land being used as a garden for the past 20 years, MyLondon reports. Brent Council have begun paving the way for work to start on the project on the site which lies next to the home occupied by Marcus Jeanton and his family.
But Mr Jeanton, of Longley Avenue, Wembley, has been using the bulk of the land as a garden since he and his family moved there in 2002. He says that details of his tenancy agreement give them exclusive access to the land and received correspondence from Brent Council themselves telling him he needed to look after the site.
The "garden" is now home to a permanent gazebo and a specialist shed for their disabled daughter. Mr Jeanton says the family have endured “months of stress” after the local authority announced the build.
