A homeowner has hit back after they were asked to demolish a room built in their own garden because it 'blocks the view' of a golf course.
The local council has refused permission for the new structure behind a listed cottage in North Berwick, Scotland - but applicant Kenneth Walker argued that the room simply replaced one which already existed in the garden and was the same size.
It followed a flurry of complaints from local people, including one which described the building as looking "alien" against the backdrop of historic cottages.
