Default garden bonfires and the law

Given concern about pollution, recycling, energy conservation, etc I
wondered how widely local authorities in UK have banned the burning of
garden rubbish? Locally, I have seen tobacco smokers being driven back
into their workplaces by clouds of smoke from garden bonfires!



Garden bonfires are not banned, (well not here anyway) BUT, you can be
clobbered for pollution AND causing a nuisance to your neighbours.

Rather like the Data Protection Act, know how to use it ;-))
