What garage courts and yards we want near Maghull
Garage courts tucked behind homes in Maghull are often ideal for a small number of new houses or bungalows. Sitting about 7 miles north of Liverpool, Maghull is within Merseyside, with Kirkby and Ormskirk close by.
- Parking courts behind houses
- Small service yards and compounds
- Sites reached by a shared drive or lane
- Land with or without planning history
Merseyside centres on Liverpool, with Birkenhead and Wallasey across the Mersey, Southport and Formby on the coast, and towns such as St Helens, Bootle, Huyton and Kirkby. Green Belt separates many of these places and covers much of the remaining open land, so most housing comes from previously developed land, docks, former industrial estates and town-centre sites. Grey belt and small fringe sites can also come forward.
What usually makes or breaks it
Access rights
Neighbours may have rights to pass over the court to reach their own land.
Overlooking
Courts are usually close to existing homes, so design must protect privacy.
Licences and tenants
Garage licences are usually easy to end, but we check the terms.
In England, a planning permission normally has to be implemented within three years unless the council sets a different period, and councils aim to decide minor applications within eight weeks and major ones within thirteen.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, around 79 miles from Maghull, and we travel to see sites across England and Wales.
