If they have right of access over the road then yes they can, a house built in the garden also has that right.

by AndrewDod

Is this the first gas fire in this spot -- why does it have a gas supply?

What does it say in your lease about walls, roofs and structures outside the confines of your 'house' - that is where the answer lies. Ask the Freeholder to explain why he thinks it is not his responsibility. Usually it is the freeholder's responsibility.

Question on Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL)

by Clulass

So to my question:

Am I right in thinking that there is no CIL payable.....IF.... you are converting...
