Pippa Middleton and her husband James Matthews are experiencing some setbacks when it comes to their idyllic Berkshire, England property. Princess Kate's sister purchased the £15 million Barton Court estate in 2022 and is looking to make some renovations to the home, including building new stables and a greenhouse. However, the Telegraph reported that Barton Court "falls within an area of potential Palaeolithic archaeology."
After submitting a planning application to their local council, Pippa and James were told that the work "has the potential to impact on hitherto unidentified archaeology dating from the Prehistoric, Medieval and Post Medieval periods," per a report obtained by the Telegraph.
