I think the OP's more pressing issue is whether he has permission to rent the space, if its taxable, and PL cover. Is the land owned by a freeholder?

It's wrong of you to assume they didn't already take this into account when signing up. The company's t's&c's are clear that you need to make sure you have appropriate insurance cover and permissions. It also gives tax advice - to take advantage of HMRC's £1,000 annual property / trading allowance.

If you're going to continue to rent out the space - you'd definitely be wise to install a CCTV camera covering the area with a hard drive that keeps a reasonable time history. Get the money paid to your neighbour - tell him you're popping up a camera - and that if there's any damage in future - you'll happily review the CCTV and supply the details and footage of anyone that's damaged his property for him to pursue.

That's all right then. Everyone reads the Ts and Cs religiously.
