The multi-millionaire creator of style chain Jigsaw needed to conquer objections from locals about sound pollution and busy roadways. He was given 4 months' notification in 2022 to stop hosting events at his ₤ 12 million residential or commercial property, Euridge Manor.


But, after a nine-day public query, Robinson, 77, has been approved approval to continue hosting events on the sprawling 450-acre estate, where Poldark star Eleanor Tomlinson exchanged swears with rugby player Will Owen.


'Euridge Manor Weddings is delighted at the grant of planning authorization,' a spokesperson says.


When Robinson bought Euridge Manor Farm in 1980, it covered 200 acres, with a five-bedroom farmhouse, sheds and three homes. But the magnate extended the estate, acquiring 250 acres of surrounding land, and building an orangery with 2 bed rooms and an indoor swimming pool.


He wed now ex-wife Belle at Euridge in 2004. After their divorce in 2014, Robinson registered business Euridge Manor Weddings Incorporated and began hosting events.
