A 54-year-old man, identified as a Starbucks millionaire, has been ordered to remove a tennis court and home gym from his property. Mark Hepburn was given six months to dismantle the structures, which were built on agricultural land behind his six-bedroom home in Durley, Hampshire.
The planning application for the development was reportedly scuppered by his wife's herd of alpacas. The exact reasons for the planning refusal were not detailed, but the structures were erected on land designated for agricultural use.
