In 1973 former Beatie George Harrison donated a manor house in leafy Letchmore Heath , Hertfordshire to the Hindu Hare Krishna movement. But this act of generosity has tested the tolerance of villagers, who have had to face a regular influx of worshippers which reachesa peak of 35,000 during Krishna's two-day birthday celebrations. To appease residents and provide access to this important temple, devotees have applied for planning permission to build an approach road bypassing the village. Everyman reports on an issue that for worshippers has become "an emblem of injustice", for villagers a case of "not in my back yard and for religious tolerance a row of national proportions.
