My wife has been watching grand designs. Sigh.
Got an old grain store a bit too close to the road and overbearing. It's a central block of ten bins,5*2, with each ten foot square made of crittal. They are quite tall. On each side is essentially a lean-to with a 30*50 challow floor.
Original plan was to strip out the bins, but it appears that they support the central roof.
Now I look at these grand designs, and seeing what an eyesore my shed is, I wondered if by taking the lean-tos off, I'd end up with a structure that was a 50*20 footprint of fairly strong walls and good height.
Anyone seen one turned into a house?

This started as a "if I get shut of those bins then I'll have a nice spacious shed". On second look, the bins keep the shed roof up!
