Pensioner threatened with eviction from Plankey Mill home in Northumberland is given temporary reprieve

A Northumberland farmer facing bailiffs coming to his property has been given a 28-day reprieve from eviction.

Plankey Mill farmer Walter Renwick, 68, has been embroiled in a battle with the landowners to stay at the property where he was born and has been in his family for three generations.

Walter was served with an eviction notice and bailiffs were due to arrive at his property, near Hexham, on July 11 but that has now been postponed after the pensioner took his fight to Carlisle County Court.
