A born again Christian who built a church in Stokeinteignhead countryside without planning permission has said he would do it again if that is what Jesus wanted. Tree surgeon and landscaper Paul Knights, 57, bought the rural plot on Ridge Road in 1972 and now has 12 acres. Originally it was used for storage and growing Christmas trees. Mr Knights, who now goes under the title of pastor, twice obtained temporary planning permission for a mobile home associated with the business but that has now lapsed, although he still lives there. Construction of the Mount Olive Ministries church, for which permission was never sought but which now, he said, attracts up to 80 people for services including healings and deliverance from Satan, began in 2000 after Mr Knights claimed God had instructed him.
