James Corden has reportedly been in a row with his neighbours over wheelie bins at his £11.5m London home.

The Gavin & Stacey star and his wife, Julia Carey, were granted permission in April of last year to demolish a 1960s house they had previously bought in the county near Henley.

Having waited a year for approval, objections have been tabled towards the demolition by both South Oxfordshire District Council and English Heritage before it was finally given the green light.

Mr Corden, who attended Holmer Green Senior School and the Jackie Palmer Stage School in High Wycombe, returned to America this summer, just two years after coming back from hosting the popular The Late, Late Show in Los Angeles.

However, there is trouble at the star's UK home in London with neighbours reportedly clashing over wheelie bins.

The 47-year-old bought the property in the capital last year, and lives there with his wife and their three children, Max, Carey and Charlotte.

In the latest complaint tabled against the TV star, neighbours have been angered by paving being added to the front garden, according to The Times.

Mr Cordon is understood to have added the paving in order to make storage space for the property's wheelie bins, but only retrospective planning permission was submitted in September.

Neighbours have objected to this, though, suggesting that the work was done in a strict conservation area.

Among these complaints were claims the works contributed to a reduced biodiversity as well as a loss of green space because a large planting bed was destroyed.

The Sun reports that Mr Corden has added four new trees to compensate, with September's retrospective planning application, describing the changes as “minor landscaping works to the front garden to repair existing paving slabs”.

It added: “The proposal is a householder development and results in a reduction in the existing planting bed by 11 square metres [118 sq ft], the retention of existing trees and the planting of four new trees planted with a mix of plants to enhance the soft landscaping.

“An area of approximately 18 square metres has been repaved, including a previously existing area of gravel with permeable concrete paving slabs recycled from the rear garden.”

This application also stated the works under scrutiny were intended “to increase the area of hard surface for storage of bins".

Neighbours have argued these are “inappropriate”.

Householder Deborah Buzan said: “Front gardens being paved over is bad for the environment.

“It is not good for wildlife, and it reduces the enjoyment of residents who now look at barren areas instead of plants and London flowers.

“It’s so sad seeing the disregard for conservation.”

Liberal Democrat opposition leader, Tom Simon, said: “There is no valid justification for the loss of green space in this instance, so the application should be resisted.”
