Indeed. It will need a look of work and expense to remove the knotweed and
prevent reinfestation, but demolishing the house is ridiculous.
I do feel sorry for them though because the history will stay with the
house and may affect the resale value.

Particularly as they seem to have cashed in and, presumably, taken
