My Sheddie: Alan Terrill & Corrugated Chapel

Sheddies name

Alan Terrill

Shed name

Corrugated Chapel

Selfbuild or off the shelf shed?

Self built and designed

Why have you got a shed? uses etc

To store the garden tools in and to make a landscape object to be seen from the house.

How would you describe your shed?

A mini corrugated iron chapel- made of a wooden frame , lined with matchboarding and covered in green corrugated iron, except for the front which is timber with thin wood mouldings added. The front is roughly based based on part of the Pump Rooms at Tenbury Wells, an ornate building made from galvanised iron sheets.

Who are your shed inspirations?

I love tin chapels, of which there are several in my part of the country, so I based it on one of these, but the front was roughly based based on part of the Pump Rooms at Tenbury Wells, an ornate building made from galvanised iron sheets.

Future Shed plans

None -I’ve got another for my bikes and a garage for my woodworking, so another might be seen as excessive.

Selfbuild or off the shelf shed?

Self-build. I had help laying the concrete base, and the roof panels were prefab, but the rest was all built from scratch. More details on the website.

Why have you got a shed? uses etc

Mainly to pursue my Art. Also to make a mess; my wife likes things tidy indoors.

How would you describe your shed?
Lovely. Warm and cozy. Fulfils its function very well, and has done for more than ten years now. Only just big enough at 12′ x 12′.

Who are your shed inspirations?
Can’t think of any. I just make it up as I go along.

Future Shed plans

If I could get more space, I would extend my shed, and add a veranda.

How would you describe your shed?
My shed is a secret garden pub, the setting of the property is very special , and having witnessed many people coming into the shed for the first time usually takes their breathe away . It’s really exciting having new folks come for the first time, there’s lots to see .

Who are your shed inspirations?

Well , ironically , I visited this site a few years ago and long before I owned my current shed , looked around and said WOW !, there are some very creative and like minded people on this site , I love it . Most of the people in America don’t do much with their sheds other than store garden equipment or spill petrol in them .

Future Shed plans

I would love to add another room to me shed, connected by a hallway , maybe another 10′x10′ hangout room . I would also like to make a widows walk on the roof.

I was referred by a fellow brewer here in the states who has had a few pints of ale or three with Wilco
