Insteresting point..

And wrong. Sorry. The classification of use goes with the land and
not the owner.

Excellent info thanks Nick.
Where can i confirm that planning permission wouldnt be required until
the planners require it?

The Town and Country Planning Act. You can probably find it online
somewhere in:

However, please note the other posters that too egregious a change
of use without permission will **** off the planners. If I were
doing that, I would attempt to be subtle. For example, if you
fence your area with a portable electric fence, it would not be a
permanent boundary.
