Good to see another UK person (I live in Devon)
I know what you mean about buried treasure It seems to be everywhere
What is your question about ventilation??
But i would start your own thread if you have questions
Would love to see pictures of your project
I love orpingtons don't really know much about the other breeds though
I would recommend bantam breeds too
Good luck

Thank you! I'm not far away - one skip and a flap over in Dorset! When I've got my head around this site, I'll try and post my question! And I might try and do a project page, again I need to work out how!! It's about where to site the ventilation holes - with respect to prevailing winds. I have ordered the tumble drier type vents, with a hood over them, to prevent rain entering them. But want to be confident they'll be facing the right direction(s)... preferably before I position the shed!!

You are only 2 and a half hours away
the tumble dryer hoods sound like a good idea
Good luck
