James Corden's self-build project pending S106 clearance
"James Corden's self‑build in Remenham is still awaiting final clearance of its Section 106 obligations from Wokingham Borough Council. The original planning permission, granted in 2023, allowed him to replace the previous dwelling on a historic estate containing the Druids' Temple. The council is reviewing the project to ensure all conditions relating to heritage, woodland management and drainage are fully met before it can be formally signed off."
"The project involved demolishing the previous 1960s dwelling and pool house and constructing a new two‑storey home, a detached covered carport, and extensive landscaping. Corden has already completed much of the self‑build under the original planning permission. The planning officer's report described the design as: "A two‑storey structure ... with a strong horizontal emphasis, under a hipped roof." The site lies within the Green Belt, Conservation Area, and includes a Grade II‑listed Druids' Temple and registered historic park and garden."
The Remenham self‑build by James Corden received planning permission in January 2023 as a replacement for a 1960s dwelling within a historic estate that includes a Grade II‑listed Druids' Temple and a registered park and garden. The scheme involved demolishing the previous house and pool house and constructing a new two‑storey home, a detached covered carport and landscaped grounds. Much of the build has been completed under the original permission. Wokingham Borough Council received a Section 106 discharge submission in May 2025 and is reviewing conditions on heritage, woodland management and drainage before formal sign‑off.
