Advice on trench depth for SWA - Answered!

I'm planning to build a timber garden room for use as an amateur radio shack. It will have a TT mains supply from the house consumer unit. I can't attach the SWA to a fence as the boundary belongs to the neighbour so it will have to go underground.

The trench will be about 5 metres long under a gravel walkway and will cross a sewer pipe that is 600mm below the surface with an inspection cover nearby. How deep does the trench need to be?

    the effects of ground freezing in the UK are less, putting less mechanical strain on the cable over time,

    How does this differ from SWA routed above ground exposed to freezing temperatures?
