Prince William and Princess Kate moved into their “forever home,” Forest Lodge, in November, but they are still ruffling feathers with their new neighbors. Locals have been able to access Windsor Great Park’s extensive walking paths for horse riding, dog walking, fresh air, and exercise––at a cost of £60 per year––for years, but a new security barrier around the Wales family’s new home has left neighbors “absolutely gutted.”
Windsor residents told The Mail on Sunday that the six-mile-long security barrier is “excessive” and blocks access to a large portion of the park. “They say you can use other gates but you can't because there's nowhere to park,” said one local, who uses the park for dog walking. “We appreciate they need privacy, but it's a real shame. We are absolutely gutted.”
