Captain Tom Moore’s daughter to appeal demolition order on luxury spa — so she does not have to rebuild tennis court
CAPTAIN Tom Moore’s daughter is appealing the demolition order on her luxury spa — so she does not have to rebuild her tennis court.
Hannah Ingram-Moore, 52, and husband Colin say they should not have to tear it down as returning the site to its original state will involve building the court again.
The couple, who shared a pic from their holiday in Spain, moaned after being told to get rid of the building, which has no planning permission.
It had first been pitched as an office for lockdown NHS fundraising hero Sir Tom’s foundation at their £1.2million home in Beds.
The foundation’s name was used in the design and other planning documents.
But the couple changed the design to instead create a 50ft by 20ft “eyesore” pool house with changing rooms, toilets and showers.

A neighbour said: “What a privileged moan — saying ‘I don’t want a tennis court, I want a spa’.”
The couple are appealing. They say the spa is in keeping with the local area.
The foundation is not taking donations while the Charity Commission investigates.
