Robbie Williams<\/a> has been granted permission to cut down a tree at his London mansion – despite opposition from his neighbours.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Robbie Williams has been granted permission by the local council<\/p>\n
The 50-year-old pop star has received the go-ahead from Kensington and Chelsea Council to chop down a diseased Norway Maple at his home in West London.<\/p>\n
The council said in its ruling: “The decline of this tree looks to have been caused by Honey Fungus and there is no chemical control for this disease.<\/p>\n
“The tree has reached the end of its safe useful life expectancy and should be removed and replaced.”<\/p>\n
The fungus attacks the roots of the tree and the disease prompted Robbie to seek permission to have it cut down.<\/p>\n
\nHowever, Robbie has faced stiff opposition from some of his neighbours in the affluent London suburb.<\/p>\n
\nIn response to Robbie’s application, one anonymous neighbour wrote: “There is no explanation as to why this tree need be felled, only a series of photos showing parts of it are damaged.”<\/p>\n
\nMeanwhile, Robbie was previously involved in a high-profile, years-long planning dispute battle with musician Jimmy Page.<\/p>\n
\nThe ‘Angels’ hitmaker and the Led Zeppelin star spent years arguing over Robbie’s plans to renovate his home, with the former Take That singer seeking to build an underground swimming pool and gym.<\/p>\n
\nJimmy, 80, objected to the plans, arguing that the vibrations caused by the construction work posed a threat to his own property.<\/p>\n
\nThe music icon claimed that the building work could’ve potentially damaged the paintings and frescoes of his Grade I listed property, which was previously owned by the award-winning poet John Betjeman.<\/p>\n
\nDespite this, Robbie was eventually granted planning permission to make the changes during a meeting at Kensington Town Hall in December 2018.<\/p>\n
