[QUOTE="Dry Rot, post: 7947221, member: 4505"] What I find curious is the outrage against fly tipping, rubbish dumping, litter, etc. in the countryside but it's OK to horde old cars, fire wood processing, rubbish, etc. on private property. I have a crazy old woman local to me who has been collecting caravans, old cars, DIY sheds, etc, for over 20 years. Apparently, the cars are "in the course of renovation". What, for 20 years? The firewood processing is apparently agricultural diversification. There is no "agriculture" on the 3 acre plot and this isn't a small holder with a chain saw and log splitter, but a huge shed, timber processor, kiln drier, and artic loads of logs going in and transit loads of firewood going out! In short, an industrial operation. No planning permission, of course, because it's "farming"! No, untidy farming needs to be controlled as well as untidy countryside. If nothing else, plant a block of trees to screen the private rubbish from the rest of us. What would that cost? [/QUOTE]
