In a previous Observer article Bob May told of the growing popularity of beach huts as lockdown ended and how he had become known as the ‘beach hut agent’.

He said: “The demand has been astonishing.

“In February 2020, just before lockdown, I had about seven or eight huts to sell with no interest at all.

“By the end of May, I had sold them all.

“We sell in Bognor Regis and the surrounds where I’ve become known locally as the ‘beach hut agent’.

“The huts range from about £5,000 with relatively short leases and up to £18,000 in Rustington but the prices are creeping up all the time.”
