"Interfered with" is fairly broad.
Yes, an appointed executor can take reasonable steps necessary to preserve the property and avoid waste before probate is completed. Some people may call this interference.
However, the executor can only preserve the status quo -- until the will has gone through probate, the executor cannot make any permanent changes to the property, nor dispose of (sell) the property.

I think Fengirl2 is confused with a request for a pension fund payout request on an early death. A wil is binding except in very exceptional circumstances. ie A beneficiary can not be ruled from the grave.
an executor can and must take steps to preserve the property att he expense of the estate if it is in danger.
ie He can get lots of sandbags in an honest attemp to prevent floodwaters damaging the property.
I do not understand what you mean by interfere

Yes - you have always to remember that a Will is not binding - it is merely an expression of the wishes of the deceased and if these are not in the best interests of those concerend, then they don't have to be carried out.
