Driveways for Oldfield Park's terraces
Oldfield Park is classic Bath Victorian housing stock: tight terraces and bay-fronted semis where front gardens are shallow and on-street parking is at a premium. A driveway here is as much about securing a parking space as kerb appeal, which makes the dropped kerb as important as the surface itself. Compact tarmac, gravel or a small block-paved bay are the usual answers; permeable surfaces keep planning simple.
Practical notes for the area
Much of Oldfield Park sits within or near conservation designations, so sympathetic material choices matter: gravel and sett-look block paving in muted tones sit best against the stone and brick frontages. Bath & North East Somerset Council handles vehicle crossing applications, and the crossing must be built by an approved contractor before you can legally drive over the pavement.
