The family home where Captain Sir Tom Moore raised millions for NHS charities during the pandemic has been put up for sale for £2.25m.

The house and grounds in Marston Moretaine, in Bedfordshire, became well-known after the Army veteran walked laps around the garden, raising £38m for NHS Charities Together.

He lived there with his daughter Hannah Ingram-Moore and her family.

The Grade II listed property has seven bedrooms and four bathrooms.

In a marketing video posted online, estate agent Hadyn Van Weenan said the Old Rectory featured an "iconic and very famous driveway".
