Easement and agreement between two properties for a right of way and restrictions for use, access and maintenance of a driveway and parking lot.
An easement gives one party the right to go onto another party's property. That property may be owned by a private person, a business entity, or a group of owners. Utilities often get easements that allow them to run pipes or phone lines beneath private property. Easements may be obtained for access to another property, called "access and egress", use of spring water, entry to make repairs on a fence or slide area, drive cattle across and other uses. The easement is a real property interest, but separate from the legal title of the owner of the underlying land.
In the case of a driveway easement, it allows the person who is the beneficiary of the easement to cross the "servient" property. The land which receives the benefit of the easement is called the "dominant" property or estate. A driveway easement may be created by recording a deed that states, for example, that one neighbor owns the driveway to the halfway point, but has an easement or right of way to use the remainder; however, the adjoining home owns the other half of the driveway, with a right-of-way with respect to the portion the neighbor owns. An easement may be claimed by prescription for the use of the driveway. This requires proof that your neighbor willingly abandoned his use of the driveway during the adverse period when you and your predecessor in title enjoyed the exclusive use of the driveway. Easements should describe the extent of the use, as well as the easement location and boundaries. For example, if an easement is created for the driveway for one house, the owner of the easement cannot turn his house into a hotel with many cars travelling over the easement if the easement was intended for use by a single family.

FAQ
The legal test in the case of alleged obstructions, put simply, is: "can the right of way be substantially and practically exercised as conveniently as before?" The answer in most cases is that a single unlocked gate will not normally be held to be a substantial interference.
Look at your title deeds to see if your boundaries are clearly defined (if they aren't, or you can't understand them, then contact a surveyor to help you resolve the confusion) Use a mediation service to try and come to a mutually beneficial solution. Contact your local council if your neighbour refuses to collaborate.
What is a shared driveway? There are two main types of shared driveways in the UK. The first type is an access way, standing partly on one owner's land and partly on an adjacent owner's land, over which both owners enjoy a right of way. The second is where one neighbour owns the land outside another neighbour's house.
Never block or allow your visitors to block the shared driveway, and make it impossible for your neighbour to use it. If you wish to a gate, wall or fence anywhere along the perimeter or at either end of the shared driveway, you should gain permission from your neighbour.
Cons of Shared Driveways On the negative side, there can be some frustrations that come along with sharing a driveway. There may be some rules that you do not agree with concerning the driveway. For instance, you may not be able to repair your vehicle along the driveway, or you may have parking restrictions.
