Thank you for taking this time to answer to my questions everyone, to answer buildersmates questions, the caravan will not be on the lane in anyway once it has travelled over, basically the lane is parallel to my garden, the plan is to take the dividing hedge between our garden and the lane away and replace it with a fence and gate, on our side of the fence( in our garden) will then be a concrete slab which the van will live. each of the deeds (obtained from land registery) state that each house has right to pass and re-pass over the lane, it doesnt mention anything other than that, since each house has a garage adjoining the lane I assume that the statement, right to pass and re-pass would include cars ? As regards others trying to as you put it "land grab" I am the only other person other than the people mentioned that can gain any thing from trying to use the lane, the lane doesnt back or adjoin any other properties. It has crossed my mind that the rightful owner of the lane turns up and decides i cannot have access but I suppose i will need to cross that bridge when I get to it !! As far as selling the house goes, we have plenty of drive space at the moment albeit not wide enough to take the caravan, so it would be no issue for me to take the caravan drive and gates away as though they were never there.
