Shed smashed with falling rock

The BBC reports


A five tonne boulder came away from a rock face and fell 60ft (18m) into a garden in Somerset, flattening a shed.

The boulder also shifted an oil tank – containing 1,000 litres of oil – up against the back of the house in North Moor Road, Dulverton.

Devon and Somerset fire crews said the area was checked and the house itself escaped damage.

“[The boulder] would have been in the kitchen if the shed hadn’t been there.”

Blimey!! before you open the shed today, please please check that there are no overhangs shadowing your shed also Alex reminds us that this time last year his shedworking wossname was nearly crushed by a tree.
