Hello PHers,

I have inadvertently ended up with ownership of a barn (I was buying an adjacent leisure business and the barn was on the land).

The barn is 20.6m by 23.1m. Timber frame looks solid enough. Construction is uninsulated steel and a fiber cement roof which could all do with replacing.

It has electric but no water.

Inside it has a concrete floor, but it's stepped as it follows a hill.

Location is in countryside next to farmland, about 15 minutes outside of Penzance, Cornwall.

Any barn owners here with experience of recladding costs or ideas for uses?

Anyone with experience of a self storage business or simply renting out a converted barn space?
