Stripe me: A close up of the fully functional house, which was built using 3.3million differently coloured bricks. ‘Legoland only told us on Thursday they were not going to take it. ‘Knocking it down is just wrong on every level. It’s a really lovely thing – it would break the hearts of the 1,000 people who worked like dogs to build it.’ May believes that an art gallery, a children’s home or a wealthy private collector might be interested in the house.
