You do not necessarily require a permit if:
- You are taking the images for solely amateur purposes and do not intend to reproduce them for media, sale or commercial benefit (for example you are a tourist, hobbyist or student); and
- your equipment is minimal (for example, nothing more than a camera and stationary tripod); and
- you are not causing any disruption, harm or potential harm to people, property or yourself; and
- you are outdoors; and
- you are not filming or photographing any building entrances or security arrangements.
It's free so why not put their minds at rest when security levels are so high.
Those wanting to film or photograph on the Estate should provide written evidence of personal liability insurance at a minimum of £10 million.
I guess it depends on how they enforce the issue of permits, e.g.
Those wanting to film or photograph on the Estate should provide written evidence of personal liability insurance at a minimum of £10 million.
might be an issue for some as it is stipulated on the permit application form.
To be honest guys I think we could argue the pros and cons of getting a permit forever, but I am only passing on the information we were given by those representing the site owners.
Oh of course, experience is always helpful information ... however applying for a permit does specifically require you to state that you have £10,000,000 public liability insurance.

Sorry for the delay in replying Robin but I've only just spotted your question.Mike..I like these images composition wise, however I'm curious as to your PP, could you elaborate?

I think we have to bear in mind that with all the terrorism threats tensions are running far higher than in the past so intervention is not really surprising and quite reassuring.Interesting about the permit. I took many pictures when I worked there and no-one ever stopped me or even looked twice in my direction, including when I used my old Sony R1, which was a big beastie indeed. Mind you, I never used a tripod.
