Between chimneys? Do you mean on top of the stack? In which case
long spikes set in mortar.

Yes - between two rows of chimney pots.

But these flying rats are rarely deterred by anything but shooting
them.

They're a damn sight bigger than rats, when you get close to them.
They can also be quite vicious - attacking people, and they can
recognise one particular person to attack, so ****ing them off
isn't a good idea.

Am I allowed?

Sadly not.

Are seagulls protected then? Seems unlikely.
