Hi I have a shed which is built from blocks, this replaced a couple of buildings constructed from drystone walls. Some of the original rear wall is left, this continues after the RH end of the rear shed wall stops and runs for a distance of around eight metres before doing a 90 degree RH bend. This is actually the perimeter wall of the garden the shed is in.
I thought this corner would make a suitable enclosure for fuel. I want to build a block wall continuing on from the front wall of the shed, and meeting the drystone wall some 8 m to the right.
The drystone wall is lower than the shed and is around 4metres high. The wall is in good condition but it's well over 100years old.
I read of a plastering technique using "hydraulic lime" and sand that would seem to be suitable for stabilising the drystone wall for another century perhaps. I would add a concrete floor, a door and frame and a flat roof of chipboard or WP ply along with roofing felt.
I have never carried out this type of work before, so I would be grateful for any thoughts on the subject.
Regards
AB
