Yeah, keeping out of farmers' hair is definitely the best idea I reckon.
We never did revisit the spot where the farmer came round and we've now found a new spot (quite near that original one) that's about as good as it's going to get we think.
It's got some ruined remains of farm buildings which we set up round the back of. The buildings and the lie of the land keep us hidden from the road, there's no buildings over looking the spot either so other than the smoke and smell of the fire there's really nothing to give us away.
Bit of standing deadwood/windfall around for fuel but I've gotten a mini incinerator bin from b&q and if I take the cargo bike I can carry it out. I might invest in one to leave/hide at the spot.
This makes getting the fire going really easy, I feel its a bit safer as its much more contained and I also find that you don't burn through fuel so fast.
