The Shed at Chelston Workshops

The Shed at Chelston Workshops The Shed is a community wood & metal workshop. Run entirely by volunteers. We officially opened on Friday 17th November 2017.

A place for people to get together and share skills, fix and make things, get involved with community projects or work on their own DIY projects. The Shed is a place for people to get together and share skills, work on projects and fix things. Many thanks to all the people and businesses who have contributed and helped us get off the ground - we hope to see you again and for some time to come.

One of our shed members created window sills from an upcycled teak door.

They cover the old PVC sills and the oiled hardwood brings warmth to the rooms.

We love the way the joinery details are preserved in the final design.
