The most striking feature of the Shire Thornham Summerhouse is the integral raised platform, which helps to create a beach-hut style effect. Raising the entire building off of the ground improves drainage, while reducing the possibility of damp from the ground. Double door access to the summerhouse is to the front, via the steps and decorative veranda. The half-glazed doors ae complete with a ring latch. Ventilation is provided by the two front-facing opening windows. A full set of instructions and fixings are included with the delivery.
