Ireland has had a little bit of snow and a lot of frost lately, I lost my only source of water due to the pipe bursting and it happened right when I needed it most!

Very nice. Thanks.
Really hope that you and all at the Bridge are ok after Storm Éowyn. It was pretty scary.
Very impressive build so far Kyle. Hope you and your animals survive the storm 😊
I have prayed for you during the storm and hope everything is fine.
Looks really good. Hope the storm didn't effect u... I'd cover over the exterior base of the shed so wind doesn't get in n lift it. Also it'll really help with interior heat retention. You'll hav no bother doing up the old house with those skills!
Your very talented Kyle just shows what a young man can achieve brilliant
Thats way too beautiful for a shed!
How did you get over Storm Eowyn? Hope you and the animals are well!! Great job on the shed
Looks really good, Kyle. Properly done too. Is planning needed for this? Am doing a new build and looking to add something like this out the back. Wouldn’t be visible from the road like yours is though
That's one beautiful "shed" 🤫 Seriously, fantastic work!
Wow great work Kyle you have come a long way in a short time.
I’m impressed with all these improvements. I’ve been following you since you started , it’s amazing what you have reached in your homestead.
Looks more like a tiny house than a shed. Pretty impressive to do all that in just couple of months, guess it was also good learning experience.
Beautiful shed Kyle. May you, your animals and homestead be safe throughout this storm. Please post an update to let us know how you are. 🌹❤️🌹
You're calling that a shed? That's more than a shed! It's really a rather beautiful building. :)
Who is we,have you someone helping,you definitely made big improvements at the homestead,everything looks great ,brilliant work.😇
I do, I have a friend helping me, you can see him in some b-roll in my last video and I think in another one of the earlier ones, either part 2 or part 3 of this project :)
Gnarly scar on your hand! There's a story there I'm guessing. Nice job on your building.
There's definitely a story there 🤣 I've nearly cut that finger off three times! Well done for spotting it!
Wow It looks fantastic!You must enjoy the process of building it and that’s why it turned out so good. Don’t push yourself too hard . You have been amazing doing it in just 3 months! Looking forward to more videos.
You’re getting there is right it’s going to be lovely Kyle
The cabin looks really lovely so well done. i love the windows and the wood
Great progress! Looks great!
Good job!
Shed's gunner be fabo. You've done so well. Congrats.
You are doing an amazing job!
Nice house!😊
Nice work. The cedar looks amazing
its fantastic
Cladding looks very neat. Great job. This will be a game changer. Looks like a real homestead now. Fantastic example of what hard work can do.
A shed, you've built a house! Wow! 🍀
Brilliant job !
Well done Kyle. Brilliant Job ☘️
Doing a great job. Take care of yourself Kyle and how is the cottage coming along??
Fair play to you Kyle ! Good Construction skills ! Luv the Cladding siding !! Blends in lovely with the Woods and your old cottage. Looks way better than any new style block or brick construction !!
Kyle, that looks incredible 😮😮 So much has happened at the Bridgemans. Looking forward to your next video 🎉
Eagerly waiting for the next upload! Watching the progress is so satisfying 😎
Hi Kyle, I was wondering if you’d be going live again soon-I always enjoy your content! This year, I will start my own journey toward a more self-sufficient lifestyle, and your videos have been such an inspiration. I’d love to reach out directly regarding your projects. Is the email still the best way to contact you? I’d be thrilled if you offer paid consultations. Thank you so much!
Hi Liz, yes the email provided is where you can contact me if you'd like to talk further 😊
Im glad you're enjoying the videos! I'm hoping to start going live again once I have this building finished, and also make more videos! I've just been so busy getting the infrastructure here up to a higher standard so I can produce more produce, flowers and content!
@@thebridgemanscottage Thank you so much for your reply and I will reach out to you!😊
Looking forward to next installation
Nice
Impressive work!
Lovely flowers! Your neighbour promoted your channel when I was looking after his mother in Dublin, back in 2022/2023
Hey. how cool is that. Gorgeous. I am impressed - so simple. In Austria we say Binsenpflanze and Binsenlichthalter. I can barely remember that I have seen some of those strange clips somewhere - now I know what it is. Absolutely fantastic. Very sympatic video. Like it. Greets from the Alps.
I wonder if any pithy grass would work.
Im amazed that youve built this by yourself. How did you learn? You built this totally alone? Don't you need people passing you things, etc?
I have a friend helping me, you can see him in some of the footage in one or two of the build's videos, would definitely take five times longer to do by myself! I learned from experience, books and videos. I've repaired roofs, walls, installed windows etc. basically worked on every part of a building in one way or another, so I know how they work, but I've never put it all together and built something like this from scratch.
Cedar - it is & will be beautiful; best weatherproof choice (as far as I remember since 1983, when enjoying a cedar side gate to my tiny garden in Dublin). Congratulations on superb progress.
Great job! Looks fantastic!
Really great progress, it looks fantastic!
You even give me more confidence to homeschool my kids! Look at what you have accomplished! You can learn anything you are passionate about and I believe my children can do it too!🎉
Great work! Looks great, wanna share budget ? Sourcing the cladding etc? U could even do an extension to the house with a refined version of that...🎉 do you think you ought to connect it to the ground/foundations incase it blows off?
Can't wait for the update on the Garden, Polly tunnel, Veg, Animals, etc. Visually the place is looking awesome !! Hard to believe it is the same place as the Barren site it was a few years back !!
Crikey. That's a hell of a shed! :O Looks fantastic! Amazing work! This might be a silly question but did you have to get planning permission for the building that size? I think the regulations are quite generous here?
You can find all of the information you need on citizensinformation.ie In certain circumstances sheds can be 4m tall and 25sq metres without planning, polytunnels and greenhouses don't need planning, although I do think polytunnels over 5.5m wide need planning.
