Out the back you will find ‘The Shed’; a Mecca of blokes looking to furnish their man cave filled the brim with old tools, architectural pieces, taxidermy, garagenalia, junk for re-purposing and up-cycling. Next door you’ll find ‘Sheila’s Kitchen’; filled with vintage magazines as well as retro & vintage kitchen items.
