Royal Tree Trouble: Windsor Access Blocked
1 Dec
Summary
- Access to a local Christmas tree shop near the Wales' Windsor home is restricted.
- A mile-long detour is now in place, impacting shoppers and causing traffic issues.
- The King's Foundation is auctioning stockings made from Sandringham royal curtains.
A popular Christmas tree shop located next to the Prince and Princess of Wales' new Windsor mansion is experiencing significant access issues this festive season. Access routes have been limited, forcing customers onto a detour exceeding a mile, which has led to traffic disruptions and safety concerns for local residents. Royal security is also present to manage the situation.
In parallel, the King's Foundation has launched an initiative to raise funds and awareness for sustainable crafts. They are auctioning 24 unique stockings made from curtains that once hung in the Royal Family's Sandringham retreat. These items were crafted by a community sewing group in Scotland.
The fabric for the stockings was sourced from Sandringham and transformed by the Dumfries House Sewing Bee. The initiative aims to protect heritage arts and crafts, with proceeds supporting the King's Foundation's educational programs. The 25th stocking will be a gift for the King.
