There's already a stream and a fallen tree, and there'll soon be a woodburning stove, a hammock, some seats and a solar light. Oh, and some camouflaged tarp to hide it all when I'm away. Keep it under your hat, though. I can't tell if I'm breaking laws or not.
Probably. My advice would be not to get too attached to it - the landowner could turn up one day and actually do something with the land (or maybe they won't - no-one can predict).
Ah yeah, I know that. It's not really intended to be a long-term thing. (Or, of course, maybe it will be - as you say, no one can predict.)
There is an adjoining field, so it could well belong to the owner of that, but given that it's essentially just an overgrown ditch beside the canal it could well be Waterways Ireland property too; in which case I'm not too worried.
And if I am breaking laws, I doubt i'll be doing any prison time - all I'm essentially doing is cutting some weeds down in a very small, agriculturally useless patch of tree-surrounded mud and putting a few objects around the place.
We used to spend all our time doing the same as kids - that is, when we weren't playing
Jet Set Willy and
Horace Goes Skiing.
