Free: 8' x 16' Cedar Shed/workshop (Chippenham SN15) Re-offered due to lack of response: The superstructure walls are all in fine condition, despite its at least 60 year age! A real testament to cedar timber. (This size shed in cedar would cost about £11k today!) The door can also be installed in the other end wall, if desired. The roof will need a new waterproof layer and some of the floor bearers will need to be renewed. The walls and floor are all tongued and grooved timber; the roof I replaced with OSB some years ago with upgraded purlins and a central beam in glulam. PLEASE NOTE: This will be available towards the end of August, but I am offering it now in order to allow the successful taker to make the necessary arrangements as may be required in their garden. You will also be welcome to have a look at it first and also help to dismantle it. While the roof is screwed onto the superstructure, the panels simply bolt together, resulting in 10 panels, approximately 8'square, plus fascia trims. Therefore a large van, light truck or trailer will be required to take it away. Contents not included!!
