How long ago, and why did they go out of fashion?
Great huts fo a lot of uses. I would have bought one or several if I could get them at the price they were in another thread.
Old farmers weekly at £15 I think.

They are not fancy enough for todays farmers who have to have new big sheds and all shiny tackle.How long ago, and why did they go out of fashion?
I REALLY like the idea of putting it up on wallsThere’s one on my place, guessing it might be as old as ww2? Approx 80x40 Tins still pretty good on it, farmer before my inlaws bought the place used it as a workshop, since then its had cows in it with an outside feed area. I’d love to either knock it down an put a portal frame over or or even move it to somewhere tidier that it could go back to machinery storage. I don’t fancy the work of stripping it to put back up but I don’t think it would be beyond the realms of possibility to lift it in 3 or 4 sections with 2 forklifts.
If it was up on 8-10ft walls it would be a decent enough grain store.
Wonder how that cost would have compared to other types of buildings at the time ?
We built a cattle shed 150 by 60ft in 1969 for £10kWonder how that cost would have compared to other types of buildings at the time ?
