Mum floored as tenant wants to rip out 'lovely' garden to turn it into private parking space

A mum is frustrated with a tenant who wants to rip out the "lovely" garden in front of the Victorian cottage she inherited from her aunt in order to transform it into a car parking space.

Just after Christmas 2021, the mum's aunt died and left her home to her, but as it's "too far" from her and her husband's places of work and neither of them drive, they've decided to rent it out until they relocate and move there in a few years' time.

The historical cottage is complete with a pretty garden boasting roses and a magnolia tree, as well as original railings, but it doesn't have a designated car parking space. Though "parking in the road seems to be difficult" as it's a busy street, "there are no double yellow lines or residents parking permits" so it's not "impossible" to park there.
