- You need council permission to keep hens, rabbits or bees
- You need permission to erect a shed, greenhouse or pond - any structures must be at least 8 metres from the riverbank
- Dogs are now allowed but must be kept on a lead - and faeces must be removed
- The council will cut the grass roads but tenants are responsible for the paths between plots
- Bonfires
are allowed but only from the 1st October to 31st of March on Tuesdays and
the first Saturdays of the month between 12 p.m. and dusk and must not cause a 'nuisance' to
