Just looking at the Home Farm Development brief (approved October 2005). It says very clearly that the remainder of Lodge Road (beyond access to home Farm) will be retained in its current form with all traffic movements being discouraged.

"There will be no direct access from the development onto Court Road other than for emergency vehicles - private cars will be prohibited from using that route, reinforced by physical constraints."

That seems very straightforward so hopefully if they do get their access down Lodge Road they might remember this paragraph (5.6.9).

My thanks to 'The Lodger' for pointing this one out.
