Shed Features
I record acoustic sessions in the shed what started as a hobby has become a full time obsession
As far as we can tell the shed was formerly a First World War billet hut The house that the shed belongs to was built for heroes returning from the war so they could have a smallholding with income We are lead to believe that during the construction of the house prisoners of war lived in the shed whilst they built the house
In mid June the shed is going through extensive repairs as it has been infested with wood worm All outer cladding will be removed and the frame sprayed and repaired the new cladding and doors fitted
We have many acts booked in to play the shed from household names to unknownunsigned artists and we are working hard to find quality acts across all genres The shed featured on BBC Inside Out the video can be seen here http://youtu.be/rIA5eeJ3fIo
