Pensioners' listed thatched cottage 'falling down around them'

Two pensioners who live in a cottage that was listed without their consent say it is falling down around them as they cannot afford to repair it to the required standards.
Edward and Eileen Quigley, a brother and sister in their 70s, live in a thatched cottage near Magilligan on Northern Ireland's north west coast.
Seacoast Cottage has been owned by their family for four generations.
It has no electricity, running water, central heating or indoor toilet.
