"Many Photos" - Pensioner, 78, can’t sell his country home because 29 cars have crashed in his GARDEN

A PENSIONER cannot sell his country home as 29 cars have crashed into his garden.

Health problems mean Alan Rice, 78, who lives in Norton Fitzwarren in Somerset, wants to move closer to his family.

Alan can’t sell his house as 29 cars have crashed into his garden since he moved in

Alan blames the council for failing to replace the safety barrier – they’ve instead put down cones

But estate agents will not take on his property he’s lived in for 40 years.

He blames the council for failing to replace the safety barrier by the cottage. It was destroyed in April 2017.

Mr Rice was woken at 3am as the car smashed through the barrier and shot down the bank – the 29th time a vehicle had landed in his garden.

He said: “I thought the council would put it right, but when nothing had been done after a year I contacted them.

“All they’ve done is put four cones down, which you can’t see from the road. They’ve got problems with money and say they probably can’t do anything until after next April.”

The 78-year-old added: “I’ve been rushed to hospital ten times with health problems since the council spoke to me last year.

“My daughters – who live in North Curry and Stoke St Gregory – say I need to move closer to them so they can look after me.

“But when I got a couple of estate agents round with a view to selling the cottage, they refused.

“They said, ‘We can’t put it on the market like that – you won’t stand a chance of selling it without a barrier’.

“I’m looking to get out, but I’m stuck and can’t move until I sell the house.”

Somerset County Council said it is aware of the issues and work will be carried out, but it needs major planning.

A spokesman said: “The work we now plan to undertake, which will include new railings at the top of the bank, is structurally substantial, due to the deterioration of the bank.

“It will require significant planning and we are in discussions with our contractor, having made some preliminary site visits.

“Temporary barriers and cones are in place for the safety or motorists and pedestrians.”
