Hi all,
I am trying to find info on the average size greenhouse, I would really
appreciate details on any greenhouse/s you own, ie size, style,
materials etc.
Any info would be a great help, Thank you.

We have two.

12x8 and 8x6

Both plain aluminium frames with standard glass glazing, ridged roofs.
single doors, the 12x8 has autovents, the 8x6 manual.

Just one. 16 x 10?? Aluminium. Divided by a partition about 3 - 4 ft
from the door. The large inner section is double glazed acrylic sheet
about 1 inch from the outer glass, and in winter I also double glaze
with bubble wrap. The outer area is (I think) single glazed.

Heated in winter by two storage heaters on off peak, both adapted to put
out only 1/4 heat (heating our stone victorian house is expensive enough
without heating the whole of Leeds via the greenhouse as well) - enough
to keep it around 40 deg F though it drops to 30 deg on very frosty
nights.
