When I was 7 there was a shed on castors at school. They ran in a circular tram-track arrangement so your pals could spin you round in it. Blimey, I havn't thought about that for years. We called it the "Summer House"
How heavy is a wooden shed?

Seconded. I have a shed and greenhouse with the ridges parallel and parallel to a fence. An example of my bad design - 12 inches between shed roof and fence and 9 inches between shed toof and greenhouse roof on the other side. Efficient use of space but I will have to thake the roof panels off the shed to re-felt them :-( - I am waiting for a visit from my son to help :-)

If the ground is flat, I'd use three or four cylindrical fence posts to roll it along 'a la Eqyptians building the pyramids'. My ten year old son and I did it (I had the posts to hand) and even moved it up a gentle slope successfully.
You need to be careful that you don't push it out of square and find that the door doesn't close properly afterwards.
