Prior to moving here 25 years ago I had a Banbury concrete slab garage with an almost flat big six asbestolux roof and metal up and over door. It leaked like a sieve , very bad condensation when the weather was cold and frosty.
I took the roof off , pitched the roof supports and put a 3/4” plywood roof on , double felted. Sealed all of the block joints with mastic and then cement. I then laid two layers of strong polythene sheet on the floor followed by 2x2 batons and 3/4” ply. A new set of wooden doors one third stable door and the other two thirds half glazed. Ok, not the warmest but dry and useable.
I now have a purpose built brick garage 30x20’ with pit , overhead beams and wood burner. AND ITS STILL NOT BIG ENOUGH.

I am always interested in any information about Rosengart details or current owners.
