your NW spot sounds great if the shades already there then putting the shed there will not use up any growing space . Been next to the road makes it easier to get things out of the car and walking to the shed to change into your wellies mean you don't get your shoes dirty.
May i also say if you are putting in compost bins would be to site them at the top of the hill as when you fill it the loads will be light , but the loads when empting will be heavier and easier to roll down hill.
All sunny places on the plot should be left for plants / veg as they need it and very little time will be spent lounging around on the plot as there is always things to do.
