That is not what the post you thanked and I replied to said. It suggested he buy a motorbike simply in order to rev it when the OP was trying to use his garden.

And that post was by me and ended with a big cheesy smiley face to show it was tongue on cheek and a joke...

Make the most of the situation. If you can no longer put a car in it, then use it for something else; a hobby opportunity.

For my hubby that would indeed be a motorbike project (we now have a double garage with doors too narrow to park a large car and he has taken advantage of this!).

So many things you can do in a garage! I personally would have a music room.

I used to live in a semi detached bungalow that sounds almost identical to the one the OP is living in.
There was a shared drive leading to a pair of garages and whilst it was possible to get a car in, took a fair bit of manoeuvring because of the angle of them to the drive and once in the garage, it was a bit of a struggle getting out of the car.


It's not a very clear picture but you can see just how narrow the shared drive actually is hence why I think the current owner decided to convert the front garden to a parking area.

I don't know where you live OP, but in terms of proof, if it is part of a sizeable development there may be files in the local archives.

We have a similar arrangement in 1950s built council houses not too far from where I live. It is certainly not uncommon.
