Mike Wells and his wife face losing their 200-year-old farmhouse after Monmouthshire County Council revoked their planning permission, alleging they dismantled it themselves.
Their attempts to rebuild the historic Bushes Farm have led to legal complications, including two rejected planning applications and accusations about harming a bat roost.
Despite receiving initial approval to rebuild in 2018, the collapse of the farmhouse triggered a cascade of legal challenges and planning complications.
The latest planning application, which would have allowed a replacement dwelling, was turned down in a tied vote, showcasing the complex nature of planning in rural areas.
