Prescriptive rights?

[Mel2705]

I own an ex council house and park on a council car park adjacent to my house, originally the carpark was part of my house boundary (previous to me owning it). The council have sought planning consent to build 2 properties on this land, thus taking away my parking and making my house only accessible via 2 narrow snickets. I have parked here for 13 years and so did the previous owners. Someone told me I may have some rights, does anyone know if this is true?

Thanks
Mel

Or is a game - find the thread that hasn't been closed off.

Sorry I thought I had put it in the wrong section. It's the first time I had posted - I've gone back and reopened the other one.
Appologies and many thanks
