So you are parking in what looks like, by the layout of the road, part of a turning point rather than an actual parking space. 

Yes that’s correct but all the driveways are like that, to be honest, most households have 2 vehicles these days.

Its the section of footpath between the blue markers that you wish to maintain, but you down know who the owner is.

I think the footpath being asked about is between the blue markers but only alongside their property, not around the rear garden.

As their is no other path around the garages I'd expect a path in front of the houses. If public access is a problem a locked gate with a key provided to 464 would be a solution although I suspect the problem is a result of inconsiderate parking. I don't believe a council can block a private row and suspect if challenged by 464 they would change their opinion. I doubt they had the full plans showing access rights and areas expected to be kept clear. The silver van is parked on the ops property, the silver car is on the blacked out area edged in blue. I'd suspect the blue edged area is for access only and shouldn't be obstructed. If the access was clear I'd doubt cars would have been damaged.

So originally 464 took the red route to get from their garage to their back garden. But you put a fence (in yellow) to block this route (with council permission).

Now 464 has to take the green route, lifting their lawnmower over the little fence, to get to their back garden.

Its the section of footpath between the blue markers that you wish to maintain, but you down know who the owner is.

Does 464's title include a right of way along the route blocked by the new fence? I don't think we've been told the answer to that.

My neighbour in 466 received the deeds last night so I’ll check when I’m home tonight.

Hi, yes your plan is spot on. I have established enough info from you guys now to say that the footpath falls within plot 464 boundaries and I have ROW to use.

And it’s only up to my garden gate I wish to replace, not down the alleyway

Its not a driveway. What do your deeds say about the blacked out area?
You're limiting what you tell us to get the answers you want.

Hi, I’d have to take another look at my deeds regarding your question.

I can’t thank you all enough for your valuable input and you have all answered questions I’ve had.

thanks again 🙏

I would think  there is a gap between the house and garage which the OP doesn't own. 
 A lot of councils allow 1.5 car space per property despite a lot of homes having 2 or more cars.

All this planning and boundaries make not sense to me. You have a boundary line marking your property but some of that land within the boundary you don’t own. What happens if maintenance is require on that piece of tarmac that in your opinion I don’t own, who is responsible for the work and cost.

I'd suspect you do own it (although it would have been simpler if it had been excluded from the property) but it needs to be kept clear and maintained according to your deeds. What do your deeds say about maintaining this area?
