This was how our shed looked when we arrived at the beginning of July. It is a wood shed but currently stores loads of crap since Erika's cousin nicked most of our wood
.Next year I want to turn it into guest accomodation with a bed, sink, toilet etc
It's about 8 feet wide x 12 -15 feet long

A view of my shed one morning last July.
