The Lady Sarah Out of Worthing, Southend-on-Sea, Essex

Owned by: Reg Miller    


Apprentice pirates prepare to board There's no such thing as too much rum Some of me plunder. Some of me plunder. Welcome ye aboard! Did we tell you we had a (genuine) dead man's chest? Its no longer just a shed. If you want to get a head... Lamplight Arr!  It be rum all round. Tis  Davey Jones 'imself. Come sit and parlay maties. That was close! The Lady Sarah's drinking den. Nobody ever said pirates were fluffy. Across the deck. The Captain and the ship's monkey. More plunder. Fun on the rum. From the Crow's Nest Shark's in the Pond?!! Quirky Creepy Spooky Rum!

Shed of the year 2010 has been announced

Shedtype: [Unique]

Features:

This shed is Shed of the Year 2010

My shed is a purpose built pirate's cabin built to look like the poop deck of a pirate ship moored at a Caribbean dock, complete with fully stocked koi carp pond and aviary - for those long hungry voyages! The inside of the shed is equipped with a full range of piratannical ephemera, including skulls, crossed bones (courtesy of a friendly butcher) and a dead man's chest. Outside the shed there is plenty of space for pirate roistering and carousing amongst the tropical plants and under the palm thatched lean-to. The front of the shed opens completely to make the most of the evening sun and provides a suitable location for card playing, rum drinking and bad behaviour of every kind. The large number of empty rum bottles doubling as candle sticks provides evidence of this.

Additional Info: The pirate cabin is entirely constructed from recycled and reclaimed materials, including the front, which consists of panelled doors rescued from skips over a period of months. This has been my own project apart from a family shed-raising in the early stages and some help with the pond digging. Stall holders in local boot sales now save pirate ephemera for me, knowing it will go to a good home.

The dimensions are 16' wide x 8' deep and 10' 6" apex.

Hi Reg, I am a young film maker working in London and I've just come across your shed/pirate emporium. I'm currently making a short film about sheds and I was wondering if you would like to be interviewed and have your shed filmed. It would be great if you could get in touch, look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Louis Village. louisvillage@hotmail.com

Hello from New York City, Reg! To call it a "shed" is a misnomer. "Fantastic Paradise" is what I call it, and the COOLEST yard EVER!! I wish the folks here in NYC had the creativity and chutzpah you have. As soon as I get a spot of earth, I too will build a "Fantastic Paradise". To add, it's the most hip, cool and wholesome project for family and friends. BRAVO, YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION! Best Regards, David "Davidgadol" Spence
