A scenic village has been left stuck in time after banning residents from making any changes without permission. Locals in the rural village of Wentworth in Yorkshire must submit requests to the village trust to make any alterations. to their properties.
Tight rules meant to preserve the historical and architectural beauty of the village mean that everything down to the colour of their doors is strictly monitored. Takeaways, supermarkets and flashing neon signs are banned with residents only having access to local village shop and two pubs.
Tourists travel for miles around to visit Wentworth and the Woodhouse, the village's grand stately home. Yorkshire Live reports every door in the village is coloured with what locals call “Wentworth Green” which represents the historic livery of the area.
