Northumberland pensioners Jimmy and Susan Robson have told how their move for an easier life 'has caused them nothing but stress, worry and anger'.
The couple moved into their dream retirement home in The Old Registry, Morpeth, in November 2021, paying £165,000 in cash for their one bedroom apartment, one of 12 homes which had been created from the Grade II former council building and school rooms formerly known as Wansbeck House.
The couple, who are both 70, sold their large home in Ashington to move into the development, which was described by estate agent Sanderson Young in the sales brochure as: "Sympathetically restored ... beautiful, spacious modern apartments".
