What I consider to be shared driveways, leading to 3 or 4 properties are a feature of modern housing estates. Whilst mappers have tended to ignore these as they are neither public or lead anywhere of interest (not part of our usecase), after all UK mappers are mostly walkers or cyclists. They are a big part of the usecase for the growing parcel delivery sector, Amazon Logistics have been armchairing these at a rate us local mappers find hard to keep up with. Often incorrectly as residential roads. I am now seeing that we need to map these correctly and use our local knowledge to map them correctly before they are mapped incorrectly by mappers who lack the experience of having seen these on these features on the ground.
