Low Flight?

Hey guys, just after a bit of piece of mind (or not as the case may be)! To cut a long story short...ended up flying over a congested area at 1000-1200 ft on the regional QNH, quite low i know but wanted to stay low due to alot of haze. It wasn't til i got home that i realised where i had been flying over was in a valley and therefore im assuming was raised ground....100metres i think (about 300 feet) I was definately within the land clear rule as there were a good number of fields available to me and also THOUGHT i was within the 1000ft provision.......rookie mistake!
Just wondering how strict the CAA may be on cases like this?

Thanks.
