THIS PERIOD property in Newport has a somewhat surprising feature in the garden.

This detached four-bedroom house, on Christchurch Road in Newport, is currently being marketed by Crook and Blight and is listed on Rightmove.

The "stunning" property includes two “modern” bathrooms and three “superb” reception rooms - but it’s what’s in the back garden that’s a little unexpected...
