New flats on our estate mean we no longer have a parking space or communal grounds - what are our rights as leaseholders?

The development comprises 20 starter-home flats and replaced ten parking spaces, seven garages, and communal open space including grassed areas, trees and hedges.
Planning records show that the application for the new building was submitted in 2018, when the site still consisted of garages, parking spaces and communal land.
The crux of the matter centres on whether you as a leaseholder were granted rights over the estate in respect of the parking space and communal grounds, which now do not exist.
Has the redevelopment interfered with any rights to parking or communal amenity space expressly granted under the lease?
Equally, however, if rights granted to leaseholders have been removed, restricted or substantially interfered with, there may be grounds to challenge the position.
