Haha there's still hundreds of boxes still to be unpacked inside

Meanwhile, cleared some of the garden from this...

To this...

Hopefully, this weekend I can begin on the main bike shed if the garden shed goes up.

Made some progress today:

Here is the pole..

Employed myself a Chinese Labourer

So it was just a boring rivet thingy...

The big square hole, ready for sand, rocks and cement.

And all that earth had to go somewhere..

..Other debris

Could be, I've dug down about 3 feet now and it's not budging at all

I just know.

Would personally use something like 20mm gravel instead of the bark. Bark = Mass breeding ground for flies.

Thanks, I had no idea what would be best.

Great day today so I did lots of digging and pretty much levelled the ground until I discovered a large metal pole sticking out of the ground. I dug around it for a couple of hours and still it would not come out. Any idea what it could be? I'll post a picture tomorrow.

Five bikes were stolen from a garage in one of my neighbouring villages:

Ahaha the chute is brilliant! But this is scary...

How do you know all of this?

Aha you know where I live :)

Yeah I guess I could but it'd be a bit of squeeze as it's already got an ergo, fridge, freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer and piano in at the moment and also I'm quite looking forward to this building project.

Took advantage of the good weather and cleared some space for the shed:

This morning:

Lunchtime:

2 O'clock:

IMG_1391 by joe todd1, on Flickr

Now I have the tedious job of getting rid of the weeds.

Next I'll level the area and begin digging a hole for the concrete base which the shed will stand on.

It is great - needs a bit of work doing to as most old houses tend to.

I'm based in Cambridge - Great Shelford more specifically.

Date confirmed July 6th and event made:
https://www.facebook.com/CambridgeFixedGear?hc_location=timeline

Yeah that's what I guessed too and they're unlikely to decline any application considering the shed is a fifties extension but it's probably best not to start doing anything too drastic yet in case the HeritageDudes get any angry.

@Dazaa I'll be definitely using some of that - I'll be also be using that in the main house.

So here's a picture of the type of damage that roof has:

IMG_1380 by joe todd1, on Flickr

So it seems that wooden beams are actually in quite good condition, but on top of that there is bad layer of felt. Once I get permission I'll take of the tiles and remove the felt. Then assess the situation of the beams and treat them.

Another query is whether to include the tiles? It'll be much easier and more practical for me to just not include them but aesthetically the tiles would be nice.

As you can see in this photo there is skylight:

IMG_1381 by joe todd1, on Flickr

It would be very easy for me to just remove it and put a roof over it but then again natural light is nice. So is there any easy way to do this or would it be much easier for me to get somebody in?

Meanwhile, I've made so progress of cleaning up inside:

IMG_1379 by joe todd1, on Flickr
It's not actually a bad table - it's secured to the ground and it's actually quite heavy duty.

Hopefully should have reply from the conservation dudes by next weekend.

@james1234 that's brilliant!

Bare Necessities I'll definitely be asking for advice later on.

Untitled by joe todd1, on Flickr

In case anyone's interested here's a very precise idea of what it'll look like.

Upon closer inspection today I've also discovered the shed is incredibly damp so it'll require a damp course and some of the tubular lights that Bare Necessities used.

Subbed. Absolutely enjoyed BareNecessities' shed project, hope this will turn out just as good. (If not better)

I'd be very happy if mine was half as good.

listed building? this?!

IMG_1375 by joe todd1, on Flickr

The shed is part of this^ which is 250 years old so as primitive robot said:

its within the 'curtilage of a listed building' its listed, so thats most likely why its a designated heritage asset. Banana skid, not sure if you know about listed buildings, but if you replace things like roofs / doors they need to be exact like for like replacements otherwise you need to apply for planning permission for any works........just a heads up incase the 'law' come down on you

So after unpacking all of the boxes in my house I'll be speaking to the heritage dudes.

In the meantime I need to create a space for a wooden garden shed for the garden tools. v

IMG_1374 by joe todd1, on Flickr

In order to this I'll be using a rotivator so I'll clear up the rest of the garden at the same time which looks like this:

IMG_1373 by joe todd1, on Flickr

IMG_1372 by joe todd1, on Flickr

IMG_1371 by joe todd1, on Flickr

So I'll try and create a budget for this whole project this weekend and begin some of the weeding and pruning.

So ever since seeing one of the greatest projects on these forums - http://www.lfgss.com/thread92523.html , I've been urging myself to build a bike shed however whilst reading it I knew I was going to be moving house soon so put it off.

A few hours ago I moved house and in the garden we have this shed:

Problems with it though:

-The roof is falling down
-It's a listed building -_-
-It's not very secure
-No electricity/lighting
-Need a space for all the garden tools (i.e a wooden shed will need to be built)
-I have absolutely no DIY experience

Should have specified - black bar tape..

English threaded but I'm not sure what axle size yet..
