Nic Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 If I were to dig a basement room in the corner of my garden near to a ( non traffic )but tarmac lane do I need to inform the local authorities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 I'd assume it would need planning permission, and highways / LA will be informed through that process. You'll likely need an SE to advise on the methodology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blooda Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 @NicWho owns this lane ? The Highways, County Council will have a definitive map. You're fortunate that Devon's is on line. We [Leic's] still have to send a cheque for £40 to get an extract, which we did to ensure our visibility splays only included Highway's land. https://map.devon.gov.uk/portal/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=2cfc02549b8940e29749f5dd3b32ca19 From this you can see roads and even which bits of verge they own. Obviously with the usual rider in the T&C's to consult the master map. Here's a Random extract near Devon Cliffs Holiday park:- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
