I just had a look at Southern Water’s FAQ’s and it seems drip irrigation is permitted but it has to be with a pressure reducing valve and a timer, and no use of a hosepipe is permitted at all Charles!
I have got an irrigation system for the tunnel which i have never used (passed on to me) but it is a spray type and those are not allowed.
A hosepipe can not be used even to fill a water butt or a can so I will have to resort to putting a trough under the tap and using it to dip my cans in.
