They aren't that difficult providing you can comply with the various
legislation revolving around the storage of explosives etc. But they
don't come cheap one council web site was asking £500/year. You'd
have to be pretty sure of your profits to fork out that much just for
the licence let alone all the explosives compliance stuff.
