Trainspotting star Ewan McGregor is forced into action over water damage at his £2 million 18th century mansion near Perth


He recently returned home to Scotland after admitting that he 'missed the smell of the rain'. Now Ewan McGregor is to lodge retrospective plans to revamp his 'water damaged' £2million home.

The Trainspotting and Star Wars actor came under fire earlier this year after he was accused of carrying out 'unauthorised' works at the 18th century C-listed mansion near Perth. Land Registry documents show the Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner bought the mansion in the Carse of Gowrie area in May last year for £200,000 over the asking price. The actor – whose most recent screen role sees him play Count Rostov in A Gentleman in Moscow, alongside his wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Anna Urbanova – spoke last month of his joy at moving back to Scotland, telling Architectural Digest magazine how he had felt a 'pull' to come home as he reached his fifties.
