Hopefully you can see a pic attached which is self explanatory.
My house deeds show the boundary line as actually including the entirety of the grey alley but that I have to allow access down the alley for my neighbours to get to their gates. All black lines are fences apart from the back red wall. Purple shows the gates to people's gardens.
I want to extend the corner of my garden where the yellow X is so that in future I can either add additional storage onto the side of the shed extending it, or just build a bigger/better shed maximising space without the awkward shaped corner bit, and then move my gate over to the right.
I doubt my neighbours would care/mind or object as there's loads of space with a wide alley there, but what is the actual process to do this? Do I effectively have to apply to essentially buy more land as it were? Is it even possible? It's not the end of the world if I can't, just would be better is all.
