I wouldn`t of thought a bit of asto/dirt/cobbles etc would require planning permission as it would always be changing so therefore not a permanent fixture?

At the moment these fields are making him no cash so a couple of hundred quid a week is better than a kick in the nuts for him.
Lee, from my understanding, if they are agricultural fields, you can build a permanent track on them without planning permission, and temporary structures, but as soon as you want to 'build' a shop etc, then the field is subject to a change of use, as it can no longer be easily turned back to a field, so planning permission would then be needed.
