Greenhouse Base
I bought some concrete posts about 6" by 1" and rested mine on them. No
Probs so far, though someone told me I ought to have put some sort of
dampcourse in.

Hi
I've inherited a nice old greenhouse from my neighbour, cedarwood frame &
10' x 8'.
I was planning on siting it on a concrete frame base & I've removed the
box
rectangle of turf & dug down about 2".
Question is, how deep should the foundations for the base be. Bearing in
mind it will only need to hold the weight of the greenhouse & keep the
timber off the earth.
I was thinking about 2" of crushed hardcore & then 2" of concrete so in
the
end the base is about 1" off ground level & about 12" wide.
Any recommendations?
Thanks
David
