Kerbing & Edging in Anfield

Kerbing & Edging in Anfield

Edges are what stop a driveway looking like an afterthought. Across Anfield's terraced streets, where each frontage is only a few metres wide, crisp kerbing and edging between the drive, the boundary wall and any remaining garden bed makes the whole plot read as deliberate. Edging also does real work: it restrains block paving and loose surfaces under the strain of cars turning in tight spaces. Kerbing and edging in Anfield can be added to a new driveway or fitted to an existing one that has started to spread at the sides. Straight, clean lines tend to suit the rows of terraces best, with the colour kept close to the main surface so the effect is quiet and tidy.

Planning kerbing & edging in Anfield

Two different things get called kerbs, and it is worth separating them. Edging within your boundary is part of your driveway. The dropped kerb at the pavement belongs to the highway, and any alteration needs approval from Liverpool City Council. In Anfield, with so many vehicles parked along the street, working at the pavement edge needs careful planning. Foundations for edging must not undermine boundary walls, and the concrete haunching needs enough depth to hold under load. A firm edge also stops water and soil washing out onto the footway.
