For info Jax the big house is on two rows of breeze blocks and then I fastened some 4"x2" tanalised timber to this so that house is 20" off the ground & was modified by the makers to fit this (sides are 6') this was done for two reasons,
1 - plenty of head room for the chrysanths to flower in november as some go to 6' tall
2 -I kept banging my head on the roof vent in the old house !!!

The little on is on 1 row of blocks + the 4 x 2 and is about 5' at the eaves reason see above No 2
