Family who refused to move have spent 40 years living in middle of roundabout

A British family who refused to move have spent 40 years living in the middle of a roundabout.

David John and Eirian Howatson moved into the bungalow in in 1960 - almost 20 years before plans were made to build the round around their home. But the couple refused to budge, saying it would have to be built with them still in place.

The Mirror reports how David and Eirian refused to move after being told they could not build another bungalow on their small holding.
