Block paving in Perth and Kinross
Frost and heavy rain test paving in Scotland, so a well-drained sub-base and full joints matter as much as the blocks.
In Scotland block paving is often called monoblock; it is the same thing, and the same rules for the base, edging and drainage apply.
Front drive rules in Scotland
In Scotland, front paving must be porous or drain within your boundary at any size, and permitted development does not apply in conservation areas. A dropped kerb needs approval from your council as roads authority before work starts.
