Hi Hayles

Good points:

1.  It's big!
2.  If it is a bit isolated there's less chance of vandals.
3.  It looks fairly flat.
4.  It isn't covered in brambles, bindweed, mare's tail and all the other weeds we know and love.

Who owns the road?  Is it a public right of way?  If the council own it or it is a public right of way then it should be kept in a resonable condition and you can start creating about it.   DH is a highways engineer and could give you the relevant bits of legislation to quote at them if need be.   :twisted:  

There's also health and safety issues.  If they expect you to walk along it to get to your plot and you fall and hurt yourself, they are responsible if it isn't considered safe.  I can see the £££££s already.... :twisted:

Planning permission for sheds is pretty standard.  It depends whether or not you have to pay a fee or just need someone to sign a form.  It used to be £90 around here, thankfully they've waived that but you still need to get approval.

Good luck!
