Industrial estate being built around man who refuses to leave home of 45 years nearly has serious consequences

A man that forced developers to build a large industrial estate around his home of 45 years has refused to do anything but stay put, The Mirror reports. Peter Ambler has said he won't be forced out of his home in Spondon, Derbyshire, in which he has lived since the 1970s.

Peter, who is the last remaining resident, has said he is content to live on Britain's "loneliest street", but it very nearly cost him on Monday. Despite now being a "prisoner" in his property, he would rather do that than give in, he told DerbyshireLive.

While his health has been at risk as a result of his isolation, he maintains that he will not leave, and promised to stay forever.
