Previous plans to install vehicle gates and demolish a front boundary wall were thrown out by officials at their local council in 2003, calling the gates an "incongruous feature" that would be out of keeping with the conservation area and detract from the special architectural interest of the listed building.
DANIEL Craig and Rachel Weisz have WON a battle with conservationists to build a new entrance at their historic £5million home.
In 2017, famous couple won a battle to keep a 65ft London plane tree in their garden following complaints from locals who said its roots were causing damage to their properties.
They said: "It is considered that the proposed works would not cause a detrimental impact upon the character and appearance of the host property and would preserve the special character of the conservation area.".
In 2023, Daniel and Rachel also locked horns with neighbours over plans to knock down a 20th century conservatory.
