Prince William, Kate Middleton anger locals with ‘no-go zone’ around Forest Lodge home

Prince William and Kate Middleton have seemed to ruffle some feathers with a massive “no-go zone” that’s set to be imposed around their new property.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are gearing up to move into Forest Lodge, the Georgian mansion located near Windsor Great Park, in the coming months.

But it appears as though the beloved royals have caused fury among nearby residents in their community before they’ve even reached move-in day.

The exclusion zone will span approximately 150 acres — meaning that locals will risk immediate arrest if they venture beyond the “no trespassing” sign, The Sun reports.

The 2.3-mile perimeter is intended to ensure that the future king and queen, as well as their three children George, 12, Charlotte, 10, and Louis, 7, have an enhanced level of privacy once they move into the eight-bedroom property. 

While residents understand that the royals need a different level of security than their neighbors, some locals were left fuming over the substantial changes to the neighborhood, the outlet adds.

“Many of us have been walking our dogs here for 20 years so to be told we can’t any more is a kick in the teeth,” one resident told the outlet.

“We pay annually towards the upkeep of a park but we are no longer going to be allowed to use part of it.”

“They’ve only given us a few days’ notice to say this section of forest is closing forever. Now I’ll need to get in my car to drive further afield to take my dog for a walk,” they added.

Residents will no longer be granted access to Windsor Great Park through Cranbourne Gate, which boasted a private car park that locals paid $150 per year to use.

What’s more, the new exclusion zone will also be heavily observed with the help of 24/7 surveillance cameras.

Other privacy measures include new trees and shrubs planted around the property, as well as a new fence that shields the home from public view.

Gardeners and decorators have been spotted at the estate in recent days, as several rooms of the home were getting a much-needed revamp.

The Georgian mansion, located near Windsor Great Park, features a total of eight bedrooms, six bathrooms, a tennis court and dates back to the 1770s — and boasts a cool $21 million price tag.

The family’s house hunt was revealed in July, with sources saying the couple — who wed in 2011 — were looking for a larger home that boasts more square footage, larger gardens and more privacy.

Princess Catherine has recently been spotted picking new furniture to for the new royal abode, including a stunning 24-seater dining table.
