Most sheds have Wi-Fi

-

YOU’D expect a garden shed to have tools, a lawn-mower and probably a cobweb or two.

But now it seems there’s a new essential for the bottom of the garden – internet access.

Some 53 per cent of sheds have Wi-Fi, while only 25 per cent have a wheelbarro­w, a survey of 1,001 found.

The change comes as 28 per cent of Britons now use their shed as a space for a hobby rather than gardening, according to research for Cuprinol.

Some 48 per cent said they felt more productive working outside. Environmen­tal psychologi­st Lily Bernheimer said that views of nature and natural ventilatio­n improve productivi­ty.
