Description

Looking at paving or gavelling part of the front lawn up to the gate to match the width of the dropped curb (permeable paving or gravel) Just to clarify, I am installing an EV charger just outside the sidegate (close to the electricity meter) and was hoping to create that parking area for the EV next to it to avoid stretching a very long lead across the drive and the passage to the main door ( as a matter of safety). I have atrached the title plan showing that this area is within the property boundaries. Data via plota.co.uk
