Flag pole planning hitch at Trump's Aberdeen Course
Words: John Dean Photography: Getty Images
Donald Trump's Aberdeenshire golf course has been made to apply for retrospective planning permission for two large flagpoles.
The 80ft (24 meter) poles were sited close to the MacLeod House Hotel, which is also owned by The Trump and is on his Menie Estate.
There have been complaints that the flagpoles are too large, and the club has now been forced to apply for retrospective planning permission.
The US presidential candidate's resort has been a focus for local protest, and this is just the latest in a long line of disputes.
It seems rather apt that Trump has gone for massive flagpoles, as there is absolutely nothing understated about this man.
But we do agree with Mr. Trump on one thing. He has called the links course one of the finest in the world, and we think it is a stormer, and a great excuse to show some Aberdeen GolfPorn.
