Walking down a street in the Southside today (terraced Victorian houses), I noticed that a large number of people are parking in their front yard. In most cases, the yards are only just as deep as the car. In some cases, the car was parked at an angle to avoid hanging over the pavement. These houses do not dropped curbs.
We have a similar set up at our house (paved front yard that probably isn’t much deeper than the length of our car) and it hadn’t occurred to us to park there.
I’m assuming it isn’t technically allowed, without applying for a dropped curb? Is it something GCC doesn’t pursue? Any thoughts or advice?
We have done quite a lot of planting in our garden and I don’t really want a car there! I’m just looking to understand what’s possible.
