Football legend David Beckham has been given approval for the latest changes to his ‘posh’ new home – including a ‘natural swimming pool’, garden pergola and thatched outbuilding roofs.
Beckham and wife Victoria Beckham bought the grand barn conversion near Chipping Norton in the Cotswolds, for £6,150,000 last December.
Eight months on details have emerged of the latest plans for the luxury pad approved changes on Monday.
The Beckhams bought the derelict Upper Park Farm with planning permission already approved to convert the space.

But a string of changes have since had to be approved by the district council most recently including a ‘natural swimming pool’, garden pergola and thatched outbuilding roofs.
The garden plans, revised from the original application, would see a 12.5m x7.5m pool built in one courtyard of the E shaped house, plus a timber Pergola covered seating area in the other.
West Oxfordshire District Council planning manager Phil Shaw said: “As the current owner wanted to make changes, further applications were made in 2017 and these were all dealt with within the required time period and without any delays.”
The couple have previously been spotted a few times in the Costwolds, stopping off for ice cream in Dudbridge near Stroud for ice cream a couple of years ago.
The Beckhams are preparing their palace ready for their four children with £2million of renovations.
