We're not allowed permenant erections either - to use HW's lovely term!! The Council only allow 11 month tenancies as well, because our site is earmarked for a road some dim and distant time in the future and they want to be able to get everyone off the site when funding for the road is available.

2 sheds were erected last year, as well as a beehive. For some reason, the bees got very angry and stung quite a few people - leading to a ban on all animals on site (as in no chickens or bees etc - I don't think there is an actual ban on bringing your dog with you). There was also a written clause in the old agreement about sheds but the 2 were ignored last year. However, this year the LA have insisted that they be removed - one bloke has taken his down and just made a little open-fronted shelter to sit in, whereas the other guy is still inisisting on keeping his. We just bring our tools every time, although I might try to get an old set to leave in a hidey hole up there (my gran doesn't use hers anymore and I might get the fork and spade she has in her garage).
