Lilidorei clan houses arrive at Alnwick Garden after journey of more than 300 miles

Two clan houses for the world's largest play structure have made a huge journey to their new home at one of Northumberland's most popular tourist attractions.

The whimsical structures travelled 326 miles on the back of a flatbed truck from Bristol to Alnwick Garden, where they will form part of what is intended to be the world's largest play structure when it opens in 2023, Lilidorei. The Christmas -themed fairytale village centred around elves, dwarves, goblins, pixies and trolls will have nine clans - each of which has a specific house, such as the two seen on the truck.

Thomas Johnson, 45, from Newcastle spotted the trucks on his commute to work and said: "I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw these two trucks loaded with magical looking fairy houses, not what I normally see on the A1! My kids will absolutely love visiting Lilidorei."
