Welcome to 'Shepherd's Huts - Historical survivors'.
We have created this site to share our love of Shepherds Huts across the Country. We have just returned from the Dorset steam fair where 27 west country huts were on display, click on the link here or at the botton of the new finds page. http://shepherdshuts2.mysite.orange.co.uk/
We know there are lots more out there, either restored, sitting in the corner of a field or a wood, or in restoration. The position of any hut remains absolutely confidential unless it is situated on land open to public access, such as a museum, so please tell us about them so we can add a photo and a brief history to our site.
The following pages feature a selection of Shepherds huts which we are aware of. See our restored hut on the Barford hut page. We use ours as a Art and Craft studio, see: http://hillsidehomespun.mysite.orange.co.uk
Please note: The huts on this site are generally not for sale. We are enthusiasts, not dealers. We have had so many requests from People who have a hut they would like to sell or would like one, that we are more than happy take your details and put interested parties in touch. It’s rewarding enough for us to help find them a good home and ensure they are preserved for future generations. Hot News: ITV, as part of the new Bygones series, have kindly placed the a video of us recovering a Shepherds hut on the internet. Click on the link below to access this great series. We are in Episode 1, click on watch the show and its after a short advert http://www.itvlocal.com/anglia/bygones/
