A mother-of-one says she is 'devastated' as a new roundabout has permanently blocked access to her new 20,000 driveway.

Ksenia Martin says she knew about the 150 million project to widen the A453 outside her home in Clifton, Nottinghamshire, but says she did not realise that the planned roundabout would block her drive permanently.

Retired Mrs Martin, who spent 20,000 landscaping and re-paving her garden and driveway, says she has been left devastated by the news.

Mrs Martin has repeatedly tried to sell the house but says she has found no buyers because of the development of the roundabout just yards from her front door.
