Redirect using htaccess not working

I am using a htacess file to remove the .php extension from my webpages. However, I have a page called images.php and a directory called images (both in the root).

Therefore when the .php extension is removed from the images webpage, the site redirects to the image directory.

I've tried renaming the images file from image.php to imageone.php and then using a htacess redirect, but the problem persists

Can I overcome this in any way?

 # Remove .php
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On 
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
    RewriteRule .* $0.php

     #browser requests PHP
     RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^\ ]+)\.php
     RewriteRule ^/?(.*)\.php$ /$1 [L,R=301]

     # check to see if the request is for a PHP file:
     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
     RewriteRule ^/?(.*)$ /$1.php [L]
    </IfModule>



    Redirect 301 /images.php http://www.thewebsite.com/imagesone.php

Avoid mixing Redirect with mod_rewrite and have your rules in this order:

RewriteEngine On 

RewriteRule ^/?images\.php$ http://www.thewebsite.com/imagesone.php [L,NC,R=301]

# browser requests PHP
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /([^\ ]+)\.php
RewriteRule ^/?(.+)\.php$ /$1 [L,R=301,NC]

# internally add .php to requests
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+?)/?$ $1.php [L]
