Official record
Development description
I simply wish to widen my gate marginally so i can bring a second car in. Other neighbours have widened their gate in our cloister, the park is a favourite place for people walking their dogs and it can be hard to get parking outside my driveway. The cobble lock in my driveway needs replacing so i would like to widen the driveway a little at the same time.
