Lucky tramp, the 8ft. by 12ft shack, subject to planning permission, with the 800 square metre plot would be worth £3.5 million.

It's not exactly Trump Towers – but Harry Hallowes is more than happy with his £3.5million abode.

The tramp, who has squatted in a prime piece of real estate on London's Hampstead Heath for almost two decades, has been handed the deeds to his plot of land.

The 70-year-old, who has lived in a 12ft by 8ft shack on the land since 1986, is overjoyed at being given the title deeds from the Land Registry.
