* Now what can I construct a barn from at the lottie, methinks*
PS I may have a bit of a swap around and lock them in the 'octagon' I may even construct a mezanine floor for them to increase surface area Loads of light and space for them there!

Lottie dolly and OH built a Grow barn as they called it, a mix between a Green house and a barn made from pallets...

On a more serious note - how about a polytunnel? You could put a smallish chook hut inside with a run.Comment

Snadger, my next door neighbour at the buildings built a PT using short scaffold poles for uprights, with blue water pipe shoved in the top to form the arch. Wooden frame for door at on end. Still being built so I'm dying to see what he gets to cover it.
My M-I-L keeps her bantys in their PT in winter. Ark at night and out on straw daytime. Works great and we're as far up as you, just on the other side of the country NW not NE lol.
PS in my youth me n my mate built a block of four looseboxes for horses using pallets and reclaimed shuttering ply as the basis, not quite a barn, but then we were both scared of heights
