Four years ago,before his death, Lily Savage star Paulwas given the go-ahead for a ground keeper’s outbuilding, gym and dance studio at his rural estate.
But following, his widower inherited the estate and launched a bid to turn the security hut into a separate two-bedroom house.

Butneighboursblasted his plans and accused him of trying to build a new home “by the back door”;.
In a letter of objection, a neighbour said: “The present application is in direct contravention of the original planning conditions and in my view amounts to an attempt to gain planning permission for a significant residential development by the back door, and one which will no doubt be sold on separately to the main building.
“Given that the estate is very large, there surely must still be a need for a groundskeeper and gardeners and, indeed, for the workshop that was constructed for them.”;
Andre later applied to transform the lodge into a holiday let.
He received the go-ahead by Ashford Council.
Planning officer Sally Hodgson said: “Central government guidance supports sustainablebusiness, enterprise and tourism in rural areas, both through the conversion of existing buildings and well-designed new buildings.
“This is endorsed by the Local Plan which seeks to encourage the sustainable growth of tourism.”;
