Have you done that in Suffolk?
Yes.

Everyone used to put unwanted stuff on
their garden wall where I lived in Bristol which was a road along
which lots of people walked to take the kids to school and the gypsies
came round regularly hoovering up the metal

I assumed that it would be harder to get rid of not-quite-worthless
junk with less passing trade ;-)

There are plenty of self employed builders around, and D-I-Yers, and
they took all the old doors and windows for garden sheds etc. Even a
fairly naff mauve cloakroom suite went eventually, apart, strangely
enough, from the basin....

About 1/2 ton of perfectly stacked machine tiles didn't go either.
Probably someone thought I wanted to keep em.
