A devoted husband who spent thousands converting his front garden into a drive to help his sick wife has been ordered to rip it up by the council.
Stephen Price, 65, said on-street parking was so bad on his road he laid the drive to help his wife Kim, 67, whose several health struggles means it is difficult for her to get in and out of the house.
But the plumber was later told he did not have planning permission for the work - and has been ordered to revert back to his original garden.
He said: 'I dug it all out and then the council got in touch and said I might need to put it all back.
'At the moment I'm £5,000 into this build. To put it all back - we haven't got the money to do it anyway.'
