The solar wood shed.

In order to make way for the Railway station a double garage in the farmyard is going to have to come down. That in itself is no great problem except that it carries 10 not very well orientated solar panels and I don’t want to put them back onto the station once it is up. The woodshed that services the yurt and beermoth is also in the station’s path so on nice days we have been building something that will perform both functions, and get maximum solar gain both for the panels and for seasoning the wood in the shed.

We started with a lot of digging and a concrete pad which cost only £1 more than we got for a trailer full of scrap metal, and the rest is pine logs we felled round the estate pegged together with chunky oak dowels. If anyone is getting rid of some reasonably straight corrugated iron we can get it finished under our budget (of nothing).
