The Council have now
The Council have now published the documents on this matter. It seems the plan was to turn part of the side of the property facing Swinegate into a garage, complete with turntable so the vehicle emerges going forward.
That seems quite ambitious for a medium sized property in a town in Lincolnshire – you’d have to like a property a lot to put that kind of investment in, I’d have thought.
Local knowledge needed – did this all happen?

When I lived and cycled in NW England, a fine run to the Sizergh Castle NT cafe was a regular ride.I suppose you could argue for better bike theft prevention measures for those who want to leave the bike for a wander in the castle
I’d like to think that NT sites were relatively safe, thieving wise.
Dyrham Park and Basildon Park both have their main entrances on A roads – but this is where a little bit of ingenuity or local knowledge come in to locate a back entrance (via Dyrham village) or the exit driveway for cars.
And it’s nicest if the cafe and toilets can be outside the pay barrier – such as at Stourhead where groups from Bath often have a teewee stop.

Concerns over slip and slide
Concerns over slip and slide off A31 near Wimborne
You can’t have fun because cars: ‘Said a Pamphill resident: “These problems were also apparent when the slide was open last year and I was disappointed to see that it was happening again, this journey is busy, lengthy and hazardous enough without extra factors adding to the problems.’
Or
“This slide is absolutely NOT a distraction. People complaining about this need to get a life and stop being fun sponges [new phrase unlocked]. It’s a temporary thing for the summer.
“Look ahead when driving on the road, it’s not difficult. If you are easily distracted then you should not have a driving licence.

New plans for ‘car free’
New plans for ‘car free’ homes next to Exeter Morrisons
It is the second phase of the major development on land next to Exeter’s Morrisons supermarket
Gotta love the comments on this one:
“Has the thought occurred to anyone that this idea will restrict those living in this apartment potentially freedom of travel? Where does mental health come into this”
Schrodinger’s flat dweller simultaneously able to afford / not able to afford one / run a car
….and with house prices how they are, if these are even remotely affordable, somebody will end up having to live in them and have this assault on personal transport rammed down their throat.

There might be another clue
There might be another clue buried in this 2016 planning application by our Mr Escreet: s15/3510 Proposal: Change of use and alterations to form dwellinghouse (C3) from office use, together with associated formation of vehicular access
I’ve requested the documents. Google Maps suggests that the house was being refurbished in 2018. Based on no evidence at all, my guess is that in Georgian times the church sold this corner of the land.
As has been stated, the current Lincolnshire highway map doesn’t claim this passageway way as such. Looking a the site plan now, it would be interesting to see what vehicular access was formed in 2016.
There are two 1700s records in the Lincolnshire archives referring to:
Property in Alms Lane and Swinegate
Two houses in Swinegate and Alms Lane
If you look at the 1900s 1:25″ map, it refers to Hurst’s Almhouses, as does the current map, so there may have been a road to access them, maybe the one under discussion.
The Land Registry, if anyone’s got £30 spare, might provide some information, but not if the site is indeed unregistered.
