Why not offer to host the meters for a monthly rental of £25 each :-)

A friend of my father's used to charge rental for a telegraph pole in
his garden whenever there was a Labour government and stop charging
when there was a Tory government. (This was when the telephone
network was in public ownership.)

I'd be very surprised if there was ever a year by year opt in for such
payments

Once you have claimed them you get them in perpetuity (until they take the
pole away that is)


Or until a landowner accepts a one off lump sum payment which replaces the
agreement for an annual one.
Often a later owner thinks they should get a payment and is disappointed to
find a previous owner took that option.
