HURLED OUT BY AN EARL

AN 87-year-old farmer is being booted off land he’s tended for 55 years – by a millionaire earl who wants to build posh homes on it.

Jenkin Rees has lost a long compensation battle over the farm he believed would stay in his family for generations.

He was granted tenancy by the 3rd Earl of Plymouth, a descendant of slave trader Clive of India, in 1965.

But in 2017 his son the 4th Earl won planning permission for luxury homes there, triggering a clause in the lease that means he can legally take it back.

Bailiffs could now evict Jenkin, wife Brenda, 84, and 60-year-old son Phil from their home at any time.

Phil – who runs the 220 acre farm and its cottages – told the Mirror: “This family have treated their underlings in an appalling manner.

“The Earl wants to finish his tenants off and throw them on the scrapheap so he can get millions from our farm.”
