Handmade and bespoke garden buildings
Whether you want an office or a studio, a shed or a workshop, or a garage or carport, our expert team can help.
Every building is unique
Each and every building we craft is built from the ground up by our team based at our farm on the edge of Dartmoor, with our decades of experience poured into each one.
Creating beautiful spaces is what we do
Since 1991, we’ve crafted hundreds of buildings from scratch, transforming garden spaces and delighting our customers.

Our display site in North Tawton is open seven days a week, so pop in whenever you want. If you’re coming at the weekend please make an appointment if you wish to see a member of the team.

Case Studies
James and Liz wanted a garden room they could use all year round, so they could enjoy the beautiful views of the moor from the top of their garden.
The room needed to be multipurpose – cosy enough to spend time and relax in when they were alone, and big enough to entertain their grandchildren in comfort.
Being a keen motorbiker Steve was looking for a new secure garage for his pride and joy and give him somewhere to store not only his bike clothing and gardening tools but a place to retreat to for a quick workout. Having been to see the display site at Shields Buildings Steve knew that he would get the quality and attention to detail for his timber frame garage that he was looking for.
Mr B’s garden has some of the most beautiful views in Cornwall, over the Tamar estuary, and understandably, he wanted a garden room that allowed him to sit back, relax and enjoy the vista.
