    Would anyone be able to give me a rough estimate on what money it would take to build this?

    At a guess the last shed work I git done was about 4 years ago.


    Ground work and digging out tank without hitting rock about 2K
    Tank will take about 70 metres of concrete costing 5.2K, labour 4K,
    Slats will cost about 5-6K
    Back filling and stone for it 3K
    Shed 15-18K including labour.
    Walls conc feed area and toe area will take 35 metres of conc 2.6K labour 2K
    Electrical work 1.5K
    Barriers and gates 2.2K
    Water and troughs 500-1K

    About 45K excluding vat no bells and whistles to grant spec with good management and bargining. If no grant you might shave 10-15% off it. However you may need to put stone around shed etc. If not able to manage it yourself and you get a contractor to do the whole lot add another 20% to cost.

    If it was me I would have put an are behind slats it would add about 5-7k onto costs however you could put a crush in there and have a few straw bedded pens, loading unloading area.


    Add about another 2K for steel for tank and walls I forgot to include it

    It can be done for a lot less if you shop around. Plenty of good deals to be got. I'd a four bay with creep area up for a lot less than quoted above.
