Access rights
I have recently started renting a property. I am in the end terrace, with no space or garden out front. The entire row shares a common access road on the back, which is where the bins are stored and where some of the other residents on the row park their cars.
Since moving into the new property I have found the people 2 doors down from me, about in the middle of the terrace, ave errected a teel gate, placed some LARGE planted trees and are double parking. This along with making access to and from my back door difficult makes disposing of refuse plain impossible without eiter BOTH removing the gate and damaging the parked cars to get the bins past. As I have only been in there for a few weeks, I have so far just let the refuse build, but really need to empty the bins now.
I am fairly sure, so far as access rights are concerned, that I should have un-impeeded access to and from the back of my property for if no other reason than to take the bins out. And from my previous experience with access rights, I should be the only person allowed to 'double park', as I have the end property, and as such would not be affecting anybody else's access to their property.
Now, I have to admit, that I have not yet brought this up with the neighbours and am hoping they will be reasonable and allow me access to my property. But judging by how determined they are to block it, i dont aticipate it. Therefore I would appreciate if anybody could give me any advice as to the law n this matter. And in perticular, If they do refuse to move the gate and allow me access what I am entitled to do about it?
