this is the panell that is put in place at night it is a willow fence panel so that it lets in a certain amount of light in the morning and constant air flow at all times

I was at B&Q last weekend, outside in the garden centre bit.
I saw a small wooden hut, about 5ftx3ftx4ft 9" high. It had double doors along the 5ft side with no centre post in the way of the door opening. The roof was also pitched backwards instead of forwards.

It would have made an impressive weathering or occasional night quaters with minimal modifications and it only cost £70

I'd just be a bit worried it might not be fox proof, could they dig under, ir get through the willow.
I'd also be a bit worried about aspergillus spores as the willow will start to rot when damp.
