Old Garden Tool Shed Before Demolition and Construction of Maintenance Garage
This old “house” is on its way down–first, via gravity; soon, via crowbar; finally, via dozer. Making way for something a bit more useful…
This is a 1970s home built by the Whitfords, since the old farm house on the property burned down before it changed hands perhaps in the early 70s or before. The shed roof on the right side (as viewed from the gravel lot) may even have been a chicken coop prior to the old farm house being burned down. Back in those days, chickens were kept in large flocks so they needed a structure similar to an outdoor shed to be kept in. We plan to take it down “gently” to salvage rafters, which are rough cut, perhaps salvage some 1x paneling from the walls, but the floor system and joists are not far off the ground and are already rotting and giving way in places, so we may demolish and burn once we get down the floor system once we have industrial equipment from a site similar to doylemachinery.co.uk to aid us with any waste processing we may have. We also plan on sending the metal to the scrap yard for re-use.
