At the side of our house we have an area of about 3ft wide by 6ft depth, when we moved in it had already been converted into some type of makeshift storage area but it was pretty obvious why it hadnt been used for quite some time.
Probably because it was filled with cobwebs, floor was full of damp and what seemed to be mud, the wood that was used to hold up the roof was rotting and oh yes the fact that it had a flat roof but had no drainage solution for the water to escape (i am equally as stunned and confused also).

At the moment i just want to tear it all out and start from scratch, I am not an experienced DIYer but can follow instructions and guidelines lol
The only solutions that i see possible once it has been taken apart is to either:
- put in a pent storage shed like this one
but even then there isnt exactly any place for the water to escape and i assume that it will just drip down the side and eventually build up on the ground and probably just eventually soak into the wood floor of the shed.
- or to make use of the existing walls and create a slanted roof with some soft of drainage feature, in this case i would have no idea what i would be doing and hence asking anybody if they would have any idea on how they would create a handy storage space. Thanks
