The Queen is erecting a new fence in Windsor Castle

Neighbours of the royals have noticed a new hand-made woven hazel fence has been installed outside the property in recent months. The new fence, which is believed to cost around £12,000, sits behind a traditional wooden picket fence that surrounds the house. The fence also now stops anyone peering into the garden from the surrounding paths.


Earlier this year the couple reportedly spent £2.4 million on modernising and renovating nearby Frogmore Cottage, home to Meghan and Harry. The royal accounts said the renovatio was paid out of the Sovereign Grant and involved the “reconfiguration and full refurbishment of five residential units in poor condition to create the official residence for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex”.

The royal couple have also sparked speculation they are in Canada after sharing an Instagram post with a maple lead symbol. They are currently on an extended break from royal duties. Because of this break, they will not be taking part in a gathering of the British monarchy next Tuesday when the Queen is due to welcome NATO leaders to Buckingham Palace.

Frogmore House is a visitor attraction

In May, members of the public were allowed to walk around Frogmore Cottage to visit Frogmore House, which was a palace owned by the Royal Family and is open to visitors three days a year. Queen Charlotte, wife of King George III, had Frogmore Cottage built in 1792 as a place for her and her daughters to escape the court. Since the end of the Second World War, the cottage has been a home for members of royal household staff. DON'T MISS: Devastated Meghan Markle fans send Twitter into meltdown after shock [INSIGHT]
