Homes plan for Living Legend

The Lewis family, who own the property, say that a drop in tourism has prompted them to submit the application.

They want to knock down the Living Legend – including the go-karting and mini-golf areas – and build two-bedroom, three-bedroom and four-bedroom homes on the 5½-acre rural site.

Living Legend managing director Chris Lewis said: ‘We are continuing to operate as a visitor attraction for the foreseeable future. A decline in tourism has forced us to look at alternatives. The option for housing is a natural one.’
