That's not a shed Deb..that's a holiday home.  ;)

Can we be very nosey and have an inside picture too?  ;)

(New thread needed in The Shed......"All about sheds")

Sorrieeeeeee  ;)

The roof tiles are not chestnut, OH looked at the price of them, blanched,then made his own from stained softwood leftovers he trimmed to size. That photo was in 2008/9, more of the bark has fallen off and the shingles have faded to a nice weathered grey now. I only have a few pics of the inside from a few years ago....

The double front doors....



The tool cupboard...



The worktop and Freecycle sofa.....note the little stove for tea! You can also see how the walls slant out (deliberately) I might add...)



Garlic & shallots drying, bins for netting etc. storage..




View out of the window.....



What I see from the sofa!

If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

Betula- I've two sheds on the allotment. Though there were three when I took the plot on. But one was made of asbestos and one was a death trap.
I'd love to post photo's of the renovated one- if you do not mind but do not want to take over your thread :-[
On the other hand it just proves that sheds can be nice, but I doubt your Parish Council chairman will have a look on here ant be impressed ::)
DebP- your shed is brill Thanks for the peak in. :D
When we were doing up the shed last year I was actually looking a a shed forum for inspiration. Yes I am that sad ;D ;D ;D

Oh I remember that Open Day, it rained all day!!! But the plot is certainly not weed free at the moment..... :-[ Sorry, didn't mean to take over the thread!
