 macgro7 so does not one keep livestock and horses?! Sweden and New zealand are out, they don't have those wonderful old english buildings 


muddy puddle: yes we would not be making a final decision for some time and only if we get stationed in europe most likely. I am just trying to get a feel for what I need to find out and if we would be able to have a semblance of what we see as homesteading. And if we could live with the differences!


That is a lot of oversight for livestock! But I imagine once you know what you're doing it's fairly simple

Yes but only if your land is not classed as agricultural.

[minigeorgianhomestead]

But you can keep livestock on non agricultural land?

No, every holding (farm) has a number which you have to submit to defra when you move the animals there.

[Backinwellies]

There is nothing stopping you having a  horse or two  grazing with your livestock you just cant have only horses on agricultural land.

that makes more sense
