Driveway installation in Hyndland

Hyndland's predominantly tenement housing stock has no private road frontage, so driveway installation applies only to the area's smaller pocket of villa-type property.

What to weigh up in Hyndland

  • Most Hyndland flats have no road frontage.
  • Conservation area status applies to parts of Hyndland, so check with the council before altering a driveway's appearance on a villa property.
Road frontage

A driveway only applies where a property has a private garden or hard standing accessed directly from the street. Tenement flats open onto a shared close or back court and have no road frontage, so they cannot take one. Where frontage exists but no dropped kerb is in place, an application to Glasgow City Council is normally the first step. We confirm both at survey.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know

Not the tenement flats — they have no private road frontage. The area's smaller stock of villas can take a driveway.
