Could I grow strawberries in hanging guttering 15cm deep by 4m long? Do they need full sun or can they handle part sun?

You certainly can. They are actually an understory plant, so will do ok in partial shade. They love warm soil/roots, so if you have any paint, paint the gutter matt black.

We had Strawberries growing (thriving) in germany and they were in part shade THERE! It's colder and wetter there than in england.
