    Thanks for all the helpful replys. My LL was unaware of the plans and is likely to object too. I am not worried about upsetting lady by objecting as we have a right to do so.

    eddddy - thanks for the list of valid reasons for objecting - that's great I will definetely use this list and elaborate.

    I am just glad we don't own the flat as I am sure it will decrease values and aparantly you can't use this as a valid objection point.

    I am trying not to get too stressed about it all. I have just had a rough few months lately with my mum dying (aged 63) and I had back surgery (coccyx removed), just want a quiet life after a hard days work.

    Thanks taff, That is exactly what I was hoping for. Will look at that properly on the weekend when I have more time and I can keep my eyes open. I'm exhausted! :o

    Is the access to the highway suitable for 4 extra cars + visitors.

    Who owns the road the proposed access is onto is it wide enough for cars to pass? how many use it now

    It is not really suitable for more vehicles. We don't use it as we have a driveway to front of house but my friend lives in a flat in the next road and she said the lane is very busy and congested. So many residents already use this access. I am not sure who owns it.

    I can't object about this access as it doesn't impact on me.

    I think it may be adopted looking at the planning application.

    Some areas are quite sensitive about access and volumes of vehicles.

    I would also look at the proposed access for the build, might that be from the front?
