The suggested measure are interesting - " Immediately create a
21ft exclusion zone around the suspect plant" - that requires that the
shortest dimension of your garden should be 42ft - a lot of town
dwellers don't have that luxury!

Or "Wash feet and clean shoes when leaving the contaminated area".
I'd like to see that imposed on the local postman.

"unless the detached house is demolished...it will be impossible to
sell" ???

"Demolished house for sale" should certainly attract viewers.

It's not wise to demolish something and then apply for planning permission.
When I was in Leicester, I had a single garage on a plot of land at the side
of the house. I wanted to put a double there to get my car, a Jag in and my
boat, a Shetland. I did all the drawings of what I wanted and submitted
them. Planning permission refused. 'Nothing is to be put on there. There is
a 36 inch main sewer 12 feet under there and we may need access to it'.

'You've got a problem then Mr Leicester City Council because there is a
brick garage there built when the house was built in the 30's. Tell you
what, I will do a deal with you. I will put a double door at the front
because that is what I want, and a single door at the back in line with the
track of the sewer. My builder has suggested that the concrete floor has a
separate section in it so if you want to get in there, open up the front,
open up the back and away you go. Either that or the garage stays and you
have the expense of demolishing it and rebuilding it as it is afterwards'

Planning Permission Granted. Got what I wanted.

Had I demolished the garage FIRST
