Fury at Tim Henman after council gives green light to knock down 17th century cottage and replace it with a gym | Mail Online

Former tennis star Tim Henman has clashed with his neighbours after gaining permission to demolish a 17th-century cottage and replace it with a gym.

Henman, who turns 37 today, has won planning permission to knock down the building in the grounds of his £2million country house.

He plans to build an annexe to the main house at his estate in Aston Tirrold, near Didcot in Oxfordshire, which will include accommodation and a state-of-the-art gym.
