If you are civil with police (or any landowner who happened by you) I very much doubt you'd have a concern. Most police couldn't be bothered to do the paperwork for such a petty thing. Besides, I wasn't asking this with the intention of actually pitching up a tent on someone elses land - I was...

Where I used to live in Southend there are signs at Hadleigh Castle which state that its private land and that camping is prohibited, yet of course you can go walking over there whenever you feel like it. So Im guessing, if it falls down to civil law, that what constitutes camping is therefore...

You are probably right there Shewie. Its more likely a civil offence then criminal - but then you have to ask, why is walking your dog through some forestry not deemed trespass, yet sleeping there is? I understand in practice what the police and courts would do, but I just don't understand what...

No, in all seriousness this isn't a wind up. I was just curious if there was a legal definition.

Cheers for that Toddy! British Red, I know and you know that its camping, I just wondered what the legal interpretation is. We can't fart in this country without some form of legal definition, this is meerly a theortical thing. Im not going to deliberately to provoke an arrest and court...

I guess I should have mentioned location. I just remember one time in Wiltshire when I drank a few too many lager shandies on a cycling/camping trip and ended up falling asleep along a footpath. Obviously I never had any kit out, just literally lent myself and my kit up against a fence and...

I hope if this is for a 'prepping' scenario he realises that walking around during riots with full body armour on is more likely to get you noticed and therefore be more dangerous for you to wear then wearing nowt.

I had the same problem and went out and brought pretty much the thickest sleeping bag I could get my hands on, cost me a small fortune and now I can't use it because it takes up half my pack. What I have done since though is go back to using my old three season bag with some of those reusable...

I know this may sound daft, but this is a genuine question, lol. The reason I ask is that if someone for arguements sake falls asleep on a park bench, noone is going to try and get the police involved or otherwise remove you. With this in mind, if someone then gets inside a bivvy and gets...

Not sure if you can still get ahold of them, but I used to have a Samsung Solid which was about as waterproof as you can get. I used to send texts whilst in the bath (with the phone held under water.) Its also dust and shockproof too, but I think they stopped selling them. JCB also do some...

Thanks muchly for the warm welcome! :)

Hello all. I've been wondering, I know that in Scotland you are able to sleep pretty much where you like, but does anyone know the legality of hunting on these reserves? I know that people go out to cull the deer every so often, do you need a permit or something to be able to do this?

Hello! I've just joined, my real name is Jason, Im 25 and live in Hatfield Broad Oak (near Harlow.) I've been into camping and bushcraftiness for a while but I would like to learn more and get outdoors more too.

I don't know if this will help (guess it depends on what time of year you are heading out and to what degree you feel the cold.) I went out and brought a £100 sleeping bag because Im much the same. I brought a Starlight something or other which is meant to go down to comfort -18, but as you...
