Garden equipment has a tendency to accumulate - particularly now we’ve all turned into green-fingered growers.

You start out with a spade and a mower and, before you know it, you’re overloaded with toys and tools for tending your flowerbeds.

If you suspect your garden is about to become overrun with all sorts of vital equipment, garden games and folding chairs, then you need a shed.

Long gone are the days when a shed referred to the old, weathered and decrepit box of wood that lay unloved at the bottom of your parent’s garden. Today's sheds are the ultimate outdoor accessory.

From modest extra storage space to all-singing, all-dancing versions with windows and space for activities inside, we’ve rounded up our favourites.

Whatever your budget, here are the best sheds out there at the moment.
