The £1.75m freeloaders: Squatters take over King Edward VII's Brighton mansion


In the 179 years since it was built, Fife House has been the home of dukes and princesses, and a refuge for a king.

But on Wednesday a motley band of squatters were writing a new chapter in the Regency mansion's illustrious history.

Up to 12 of them have moved into the Grade 1 listed property and pinned a notice in the porch declaring their legal rights under Section 6 of the Criminal Law Act 1977.
