Fitting rafters

A number of factors significantly reduced the work I could do on the shed between the end of December and end of March - not least the weather. However the rafters are now cut and in place on the roof. I still need to cut the rear rafters to length and finishing pegging along the eaves but this should be completed fairly soon (assuming the weather is dry).

I have purchased oak feather-edge boards (from Yandles) to clad the back and sides and will be collecting slates on Wednesday (from Independent Slate Supplies). I need to order plywood, waterproof membrane, insulation and battens and work can progress on cladding the frame.
