Default How much fuel can you store on private property

Does anyone know how much fuel petrol/diesel you can store on private property?
I remember someone telling me that you need to apply for a licence after a certain amount.
Don't worry i'm not stock pilling fuel the Panaroma programme on BBC 1 now has got me thinking.

Sorry shit phones, if you got spillage protection I.e bunding or spill safe pallets for barrels then sky's the limit, you got fire regs to comply with too, 1.8m away from doors and windows
