Let me lay out the facts:
Interested to know if anyone has any thoughts on the legal standing of this, like i said this isn't an official parking space, has no dropped kerb ect so my thoughts are, the other residents are essentially parking in front of their garden on the shared private road and therefore there is nothing wrong in that action.
- I am the owner of a property which sits on a private road.
- The road is shared by 4 other houses (5 in total).
- Of the other properties 3 are owner occupied and the other 2 are BTL and rented to Tenants, including House No.1.
- Together the owners of each property are Directors of a management company set up to maintain and administer the shared areas.
- Adjacent to House No1. is a strip of gravel. This is owned by House No. 1.
- The owner (not the Tenant) of House No 1 is kicking up a fuss because other residents are parking on the shared tarmacked area but in front of this strip of gravel and blocking 'access' to it.
- This strip of gravel is not a designated parking space. Each of the properties has a designated parking space in front of their properties which are shown on their deeds.
- Anyone from No. 1 can access the gravel on foot as there is space either between the cars or directly from their front door, the gravel area that they own extends behind a bin store and links to their driveway.
