You have been given some good advice but just to add a few points.
The permission should detail what types of methods of control you are authorised to use, snares, dogs, lamps, .22 air rifle, .22-250 cf rifle etc.
The types of quarry you may shooting, crows, rabbits, ducks, fox etc.
One thing that 90% of people forget to add is that you may also remove the "catch". The police can arrest you for suspected theft should they catch you in possession of rabbits or a deer for example. Waking the landowner at 2am after a nights lamping because the plod are board will not go down well at all.
A shooting permission slip can be as simple as this:
I ...................... (Holder of shooting rights) authorise and grant my permission for ......................... (You) to use ............................. (Snares/ shotguns etc), to control ......................(type of quarry) over the land known as ................................. (farm address).
He is also responsible for removing and disposing of the catch.
Signed .................................. (holder of shooting rights).
