Mum-of-four from Bury builds 'Britain's best shed' with old doors she bought on Facebook

A mum-of-four has built 'Britain's best shed' out of second-hand items she bought on Facebook Marketplace for just £200. Kelly Haworth, from Bury, used old doors and recycled pallet wood to create her budget-friendly retreat.

The 41-year-old constructed the beautiful 2m x 3m potting shed along with her husband Derrick. Inspired by a love of repurposing unwanted items, Kelly transformed her basic allotment plot into a hideaway featuring a small kitchenette, a potting area, a tool store and even an off-grid bathroom.

It took only five weeks to complete and cost around £200 to make. After recently being named Cuprinol's Shed of The Year 2022, Kelly, who is also an avid baker, said she was 'over the moon'.
