    Hello,

    I currently have space for two cars, half concrete, half gravel. I want to cover the gravel in concrete, and extend the parking space about 15%. Don't want to widen driveway (yet, as don't have PP). Do I need planning for the other work?

    Unless it specifically states on your planning permission that you need to retain a certain area of "green" space then you wont need permission to provide additional parking.

    would you not remove the concerte and extend the gravel area

    the cumulative affect of extensions ( exempt and permitted ) and extending driveways is overstressing public authority drainage sytems

    we ( collectively ) need to reduce that strain

    you might consider a rain water recycling tank ? you would reduce starin on the public drain , beat future hose pipe bans . in the future you could add a pump to serve for wc flushing and reduce your water consumption
