In case anyone wonders, our Shed has ben moved from beside the Main Gate to beside the locked East Gate. This was a Council decree, despite our protestations that this was an unsuitable location, especially as it will be blasted by strong sunlight (when it is warmer and sunnier) and will probably warp. The Council will plant a long hedge there, but it’ll be a few years before it forms an effective screen.
