Hmmm, this seems to contradict information that I have been looking
at recently where a court ruled that although neighbours could
enforce such a covenant, it was only applicable to original owners

It's 35 years since I did this stuff at uni, but IIRC the distinction
is between the situation where you sell off half your garden with
covenants limiting what the buyer can do and the building scheme
situation where the developer imposes identical covenants on all
buyers of homes on an estate (a 'building scheme').
