We Didn't Know We had Spaces!?

A group of budding explorers on Kings Hill have recently located what they believe to be as car parking spaces, to the rear of some the development houses.
During Half Term, an expedition by 7 young teenagers began in a quest to find the mystery treasure that has been often branded as a myth here on Kings Hill.
"It was actually Mikey that found the first one" said Chunk. "It was when we followed him off of Regent Way and heard his cries. He was so happy, he'd found a car park space!"
The car park space was indeed the first of many that were simply sitting there, brand new and un-used since the day they were paved and whacked freshly with silver sand. A completely different shade of block paving to the rest of the development.
The trend continued throughout most of Kings Hill, but by far the largest clusters of un-used car park spaces were located to the rear of Regency Way and Beacon Avenue, in an eery and sad chernobyl like state.
We contacted one of the residents, Johnathan Fuchwit who claimed "I'd never known I had a space? I don't remember it on the deeds, we've always assumed our car park space was on the road out front. It just seemed more convenient to narrow the road, walk across the grass and into our house, no? Me and Mrs Fuchwit have often sat with a cup of tea looking out the window, wondering why there is so much traffic just sitting there waiting. Now it makes sense!"
The myth of the car park treasure had reared itself like an old folk tale again earlier last month after the 'new road' opened.
It wasn't long before switched on residents noticed the Black Audi parking in front of the new development fencing, as if all too obvious it was guarding some hidden treasure to the rear of the town houses. "There's no way that car is simply parking there due to laziness, no way." said Mikey. It's what led to the planned expedition.
The young explorers are keen to locate more hidden car park spaces in order to help the community free up roadways, and ease journey times what with one recent Spitfire customer taking 14 minutes to get to through traffic.
Have you found any hidden car park spaces at the rear of houses? Maybe you know someone who uses visitors spaces, pavements or roadside parking because they didn't realise they have an allocated space? Let's help them!
