New driveway

Posts: 13,184 Forumite
I currently have a driveway wide enough for 1 car. I'm planning on widening it by paving the existing driveway and some of the garden, so it's wide enough to park two cars on it.
My neighbours object to this (long story) and said they would put in an objection when we apply for planning permission.
Do you need planning permission to pave your own driveway/garden? I didn't think you did

Apparently not, unless you're planning to widen the access (ie the dropped curb) and you live on a main road.
Pave away and tell your neighbours to mind their own business!0 -

We are dropping the curb and have been told we need planning permission which really annoys me as I already have to use one of three contractors specified by the Highways Agency to do the job!!!! :mad:"Those who try to make sense of the world are divided into four categories: scientists, theologians, philosophers, and fools.

Thanks - planning to leave the dropped curb as it is, and we're in a small cul-de-sac rather than a main road.Here I go again on my own....0
