Before the 5×4 building could be constructed, the old shed had to be demolished. See the demolition video below, or head to our YouTube channel BarleyStore for the full 5×4 Hayes Lane Project playlist.

Video Diary: Shed Demolition
Demolition of shed
With the plans organised, the day has come for the old shed to be demolished. With help from his brother-in-law Nick Lawrence, Ralph dismantled the shed, clearing the site for the project to begin. Part of this involved breaking up and then removing the old concrete slab, a task best undertaken with earmuffs!
- The original shed on a dreary day before demolition.
- The old structure came down relatively quickly, with just the concrete slab to go.
- Cracking up the concrete slab
- The slab cracked up, and fenced off for the night.
- The stripped site ready for work to begin.
All the rubbish was thrown into a ‘Jim’s Skip’, to be disposed of and recycled as ecologically as possible.
