Legally compliant? Yes
Sound? No
Duty to co-operate? Yes
The current access relies upon demolition of The Rectory (Third Party Landowner) for which the deeds, covenants and title documents have been lost prior to 2008. On this basis it would appear to be unsound to allocate a site without a reasonable certainty it can be delivered un-encumbered of legal restrictions and covenants. If the site is delivered, there is a possibility of legal issues and unknown land registry risks for future owners. This issue of third party land ownership is not an issue on other reasonable alternative sites and does not appear to have been considered in this policy.
Scale of site reduced to deliver a private driveway access rather than estate road.
