Just a bog-standard 8 x 6, ideally in shiplap.

On a very rough estimate, it doesn't look like there's a lot to be
saved by building from scratch compared with buying something and, of
course, the manufactured ones would take a lot less time to install.
A lot of places are running sales just now, of course. *Nonetheless, I

While I'm on, does anyone have any good/bad experiences of suppliers
either online or locally in the midlands?

That matches my experience, no cheaper to DIY but you get a much more
robust result, and importantly you can have whatever size, shape,
design and features you want.

Next time round I may well consider spending the money on a suitable
saw instead, and using a garden felled tree.
