What are the rules on emergency escape routes from a residential property? I've read some of the bumpf online and can't quite fit my scenario into anything I've read.
Basically my back garden has no easy exit (tall fence and an 8' drop on two sides) save the side alley running between the house and garage. If I rebuild the garage and eliminate the alleyway my only emergency exit from the rear of my house via the back garden would involve going throught the back door of the garage and out the front, or kicking the neighbours fence down, or dropping 8' to the ground after going over my rear fence.
Can anyone advise?
