N.B.
The owner has a right to use any designated parking area in the grounds of the building and to authorise visitors to do so.

However, those with garages should not park for more that 2 hours in the designated parking spaces as these may be needed by those without garages. The lease also states "not to use the garage (if any) forming part of the property otherwise than for the garaging of a private motor vehicle in connection with the use allowed”.
