You like to do things the hard way then!

You will require a spare fuseway in the consumers unit


For 2 lightbulbs and a socket a 13A spur off of the ring will suffice,
but a dedicated circuit is the ideal solution.

run
whats known as a "submain" cable from the consumers unit to the 1st
new shed into a say 4 way consumer unit with a 30mA RCD and 2x 16a B
type breakers and a 6a B type breaker.
From the board in 1st shed run a submain to a 2way board in 2nd shed
thus making provision for both lighting and sockets.

Or, easier still. Run the submain into a 2 way garage unit, (which
comes with RCD, 1x16A and 1x6A MCB), to the shed with the socket in.
Run the socket off of the 16A MCB and run the local lighting from the
6A MCB and run the remote sheds lighting via a 1.5mm SWA cable from
the 6A MCB.

To the OP - As for the technicalities of the actual supply and
earthing etc... Google for it on this group, there's loads.
