A mega Grand Designs project to build a modern “castle” in Wixford, near Stratford-upon-Avon, has sparked a backlash after a number of locals voiced objections to the structure – believed to be the biggest ever seen on the show.
The project in Wixford, Warwickshire has been likened to a “prison”, a “multi-storey car park” and “a perversion”. Host Kevin McCloud also half-joked that you would have to be “out of your mind” to take on a build of such a scale.
