Finally...

Motto - a farmer has more land and a bigger straw stack than the householder
He's lucky it wasn't a muck midden - the flies in this warmer weather

Or an old curtain-sider deposited in the middle distance for wedding guests to admire.

Slightly raises the stakes in upsetting the local farmer.

Looks like his land boundary is long so where ever the stack was made along this field edge he would be anoyed? This is getting and will get worse as more houses are built, the conflict between people who view the countryside and its views, and what they think they can do? Against those who struggle, its far worse with livestock, what if that field was full of sheep and that mans dog got in? Many people now think that escape to the country, means that they then have many rights, such as walk/roam where they like, complain complain complain from smells to noise, we had one the other day was ringing on our bell saying her dog was in my field and was annoyed that i hadnt fenced it?

Looks like he'd have actually been happier with 2.8m high solar panels.

Suppose if someone objects to something which needs planning permission, they should have a think before doing so. Lots of things agricultural don't need planning permission.

I have a feeling this stack will not be cleared within 30 months and what I have seen with stacks of straw there is enough sustenance within to have a large impact on rodent infestation.
This one is far enough from the owners establishment that nothing will be done to control the little blighters then more trouble for the Local District Council.

30 months?
He’s clearly agitating for the stack to me moved (from his view) ASAP, before winter sets in and the ground gets too wet.

You need a right to farm law (incomers cannot change what is in place)

Perhaps he's a land agent

Jeez. Next you'll be telling us we ought to have a law allowing us to defend private property....

 

[gatepost]

In reality it all gets very childish, we see it all the time re planning, always support it ,just somewhere else, and the reaction, well although quite good for a week or two, won't help relations long term either, but you do come across some Arsroles, very quick to reach for a solicitors letter instead of having a chat or even just saying ''good morning''

Gonna need more bales then.,

 

[Bokey]

Looks a well built stack

Oooops, sorry forgot we are talking England here, you have no right to free speech so pretty much have no rights...............except that most important one of course...........the right to pay loads of tax.

Nothing better than a massive rat infested straw stack to keep the local white settling complainer & his ilk busy over winter.
Hopefully Roland doesn't enter his house & leap out from the under sink cupboard or stick his head out of the Cornflake box terrifying the lady of the house like he usually does in these circumstances.
Complaining about it being a fire risk ensures Salmon Shorts will be first in the frame if it does go up.
