Block Paving Driveways in Allerton

Block Paving Driveways in Allerton

The substantial Victorian and Edwardian villas around Calderstones Park have generous plots, and that gives block paving room to look its best. A well-chosen pattern in a complementary brick or stone tone sits comfortably against the area's brick and stone frontages, and the blocks can be lifted and reset if roots from mature trees ever shift the ground. Block paving driveways in Allerton are a natural fit for villas that need space for more than one car without a sea of black tarmac. Several roads sit in conservation areas, so a muted palette and a considered layout are worth the thought.

Planning block paving driveways in Allerton

Large villa frontages can carry more detail than a standard estate drive, such as a border of contrasting blocks, a curved sweep to the door or a defined path. Mature trees are common in Allerton, and roots can heave a drive, so the base and the choice of edging matter. In conservation areas the look of the surface is part of the street, so check what applies to your road. Block paving can be laid permeably, which fits the rule on hard surfaces over 5 square metres at the front of a house. Liverpool City Council can confirm.
