Outdoors kitchen

Between doing other things (buying sheep, strimming, bbqing etc) we have been beavering away on the woodshed.
At the start of today it looked like this
Which looks like nothing, particularly compared with what was there to start off with
But it took much of the day to clear it out and burn about 30 wheel barrow loads of twigs and rubble that were at the bottom.
It was a bit hot for having a huge fire but the cows seemed to enjoy it, I think the smoke kept the flies away. It was worth the heat though to get to this

The concept is to have an 'outdoor kitchen' here with perhaps a fridge and some way of cooking and comfy seating for eating in the shade in the summer. It is well ventilated as the roof has been designed to ensure this (I believe pigs and chickens would have been kept here originally). Initially we will just have table and chairs here.

The view is lovely - if the giant hedge is cut down (Ruth and Huw maybe it will still be waiting to be done when you are here...!!!)
