A true "pubshed" this is a standard 10 x 8 ft garden shed that ive turned into my new local, it has mdf reinforced walls, floor and door, fully lined/soundproofed with rockwool insulation , the bar is 5.5ft long , got sky tv, fridge, few bar stools, snug table, wall mounted heater, carpeted, sound system, genuine ex pub fittings, brass footrest, last orders bell, optics, mirrors, taps and wireless linked to house alarm. Serving chilled cans, bottles and spirits just now till i get round to sorting out a keg system .
The best thing about the shed is that it now takes me less than ten seconds to get to the "pub" from my house, which sometimes can be a little too convienient if you ask my wife. The only problem i have now is finding somewhere to keep the lawnmower and kids bike.
Its taken six months to complete and cost ﾣ 2000, the shed itself cost ﾣ650 and i raised this by selling my xbox 360, gaming chair, digital camera, camcorder, laptop, digital photoframe and nokia phone on ebay. The name "3 steps" came about because you can only really take three steps in any direction. Although this may sound small theres room for eight drinkers and a great pub feel to the place whether it be fri night knocking back shots or a sunday afternoon session watching the football on sky.

Hi Garry,
thanks for you comments on our site. We thought it would be a tight run race between you,us and the Forge, but you beat us by miles! Not sure I could have handled more publicity though! Good luck in the final. (alex will send you through some info on the website, & if you fancy splashing out on a pubsign, theres a link on our website to the guy that did ours)
