Default shed design

I do wish they would make sheds with the bottom where it tends to rot if its

bottoms have all rotted but the rest seems sound, and it seems such a shame
to toss it. OK so you could get somebody to make metal bits to fix it to
the good bits, but the cost would be probably more than the shed and its
hardly a listed building!

You could always build a shed with concrete gravel boards at the bottom,
as is sometimes done with fences. In fact I might even do that for one
that I need to extend / rebuild as the roof is gone (as well as a bit of
decay in some of the bottom timbers).
