What may appear to be a public road sometimes isn't.

I know what you mean - but this
is a public road. It leads to a new estate, and the layby was put in to allow the existing houses either side of the accessroad somewhere to park.

So if you park next to a gable end house - be aware that the house owner may well own the land you park on.

That happens to the neighbours at the opposite end of our block. The road in front of the house is public, so they have no (legal) right to park there. the land beside their house belongs to them, and has three other peoples' cars parked there all the time. When here dad tried to enforce their ownership of the land by parking there, he got back to it to find it covered in smashed eggs!
