Inside a garage


Today we got a chance to finally look inside some garages. We'd been given a set of keys from Sheffield Homes and returned to Derby Street and Daresbury Drive to explore the vacant garages.

We started at Derby Street where we had been given one key to a double garage. Interestingly the garages and railings were being painted as we arrived. The door was a bit sticky, but we managed to get it open and all filed in to see what the space was like. It was as deep as we had hoped/guessed, but a bit narrower than we had expected. Interestingly 2 out of the three blocks offered the potential for openings to let light in at the rear of the space, as it turned out only one of the blocks was earth sheltered.

From Derby Street we walked onto Daresbury Drive to look in a selection of garages there. We had several keys for the vacant garages in the block, and had a look in a couple. We found a beehive in one and some rubbish in an other but came to the conclusion that were on the whole pretty much the same space inside.
