Goes without saying the blocks he has put at the edge of the kerb are also a "tripping hazard" which ambulance chasing compo companies would sue him over should someone fall over them.....:think:

worked for so called ambulance chasers many years ago we would go nowhere near these type of things because it was unlikely the homeowner had insurance to claim against and the time for the solicitor to put into the claim would be extremely costly so were often dropped.

Be careful

If it does get so bad you want to move, you might have to declare any disputes with neighbours as part of the information about the property

More "will" than might, unless you want the dispute to bite you at a later date.

Just don't park in front of his 'driveway'. Tell visits to park the otherside of your house or leave a gap.

Why create problems for yourself

It's the neighbour who's causing problems. This isn't a drive so he has no rights. I hope the OP stands up for himself.

There is no legal need to avoid parking at the bottom of a 'drive' unless the kerb is dropped - also it would be worth looking into the CCTV you say he has installed as there are rules and regs about signage and what people are allowed to film...


good luck, xx

They are obstructions on a public highway, which is an offence in itself.

If your neighbour’s camera is installed on their residential property and being used for their own personal domestic use, they are unlikely to be breaching the Data Protection Act. This is because the use of CCTV cameras for domestic security purposes is exempt from the data protection principles. This applies when a person uses CCTV to protect their home from burglary, even if the camera overlooks the street or other areas near their home.
