Comment:I live next door to number 22 Annies Close at number 20.
I have no problems with the proposed extension as a completed build but down to experience and common sense I have a serious issue with next doors access to be able to transport building materials to the site and access for tradesmen to work on the site.
Number 22 is a landlocked property but has a right of passage over our (number 20's)drive to access their own drive.
I cannot see any reasonable way without using our land that this extension can be built.
In theory heavy transport to bring building materials could  come to the end of our drive and then the materials be carried up to next doors front door and round their path to the side where the extension is proposed and tradesmen could follow this route.
In practice and down to years of experience of living here I feel lorries and vans will be driven and parked on our drive and the line of least resistance will be taken with tradesmen using our land each day of the build.
We are a household who currently have responsibility for seven vehicles.There is room for four of these vehicles on our drive in front of a double garage as per design of our dwelling.It is this peice of land that I feel will be needed and if used I would need to move vehicles to prevent damage and I have nowhere to move them to.
The previous occupants had work to the rear of this property and a conservatory renovation.
A few lorries with materials came up our drive.The lorries damaged our tarmac and drain covers.We ended up replacing two sections at our own expense.
The professional company who replaced these sections stated that the driveway was not that substantial and should not be subject to a vehicle of more than two and a half tons in their opinion.
There was also two of our vehicles damaged while in front of our garage.One scratched and one badly chipped by a tradesman using a grinder while in effect trespassing on our land.
I am thinking that if someone looks at the plans to both properties and study were the boundaries are you will understand my concerns.
