Pippa Middleton and her husband James Matthews are facing growing backlash after a quiet country lane near their Berkshire home was reportedly shut to the public. The closure of Mill Lane has left villagers frustrated, with many saying it cuts off a route they have relied on for years.
What began as a local concern is now turning into a wider row over land, access and influence in a close-knit rural community. At the centre of it all is Barton Court, the couple's £15 million 32-room Georgian estate, where plans to reshape and expand the property appear to have deepened tensions with neighbours who feel increasingly pushed aside.
