A man who erected a six-foot wall outside his house for "security" has been locked in a two-year battle with the council because they want it demolished.
Mark Roberts paid £5,000 to build the structure outside his home in Caerphilly, Wales in 2020. But just one year later he received a letter from Caerphilly County Borough Council demanding the wall be demolished.
“The wall is three years old this month and I had a huge conifer hedge there,” the garden product manufacturer told Wales Online. “I took it all down because the wall was coming apart and it was getting dangerous. So I then built the wall - a nice strong wall, didn’t think anything of it, and then we had a letter from the council that someone had reported it.
