Comment on The Garden Shed
My father's garden shed also served as a greenhouse and as a meeting place for "our gang" of quite young boys & girls in the early forties. We were so young that everything that went on there was totally fun and innocent! Wonderful times rhey were. As I remember my young lady was a particularly lovely young lady and sadly died very young.

The garden shed is not specific to England. You find them all over Europe.

The sheddies of Britain and the world, love sheds, they are livable, lovable and buildable. We just provide an outlet for them to "share their sheds" www.readersheds.co.uk

Sorry but the garden shed while certainly to be seen in many 'suburban' gardens is not restricted to England, nor is it as common today as in years past. In Australia, a garden shed is just as essential as a garage, whereas amongst my english friend and family the 'garden shed' is conspicuous by it's absence.

This has to head the quirkiest category. And often used not for tools or pottering about in, but for escaping from the wife for a bit. I'm in the process of making my shed an outdoors den for next winter.

While garden sheds are found worldwide, so too are many other icons.... What is unique about the English is there relationship to their garden sheds. What is iconic is the way garden sheds are used by many people in England.
