6x8 Sheds

6x8 (1828x2438mm) reads like a 6x4 with extra length: same width, more depth, which suits gardens where the shed sits along a fence rather than projecting into a lawn. The extra 4 feet at the back take a second workbench, a shelf-and-bench combo for potting, or just longer items like a strimmer or a folded camping table. Standard formats are apex and pent; pent works better against fences (the slope away from the fence directs water into the garden, not the neighbour's). Living and Home, Robert Dyas and very.co.uk between them cover £184-£1,253 in this size. 6x8 is the largest size that still typically falls under permitted development for an outbuilding, so it's the practical maximum for renters and shared properties.
