Auto Shed Plans · Last updated 22 October 2026
Who we are
Auto Shed Plans is a free website that turns an idea for a farm building into scaled drawings, a planning check, a supporting statement and construction drawings. It is run by the person who owns this website, who also runs Model my Property, Auto Field Maps and Auto Extension Plans.
What we keep
There are no accounts, and you never need to give your name or email address. Your plan is saved automatically in your own browser so it is there when you return. It is not sent to us.
Plans you upload (PDFs or pictures) are read in your browser and kept there. They are never uploaded to us or anyone else.
Anything you type into the farm and planning details, such as your name or address, stays in your browser and only appears on the drawings and documents you choose to print or download.
Services the site uses
The site is hosted by Cloudflare. The 3D view loads the Three.js library from jsDelivr, and reading PDFs loads Mozilla's PDF.js from cdnjs. Like any website that loads from other places, these services can see your internet address.
When you find your farm, the postcode or place you type is sent to postcodes.io (a free, open postcode lookup) or, for an address, to OpenStreetMap's Nominatim search. The aerial photo is loaded from Esri's World Imagery service, and nearby roads, buildings and airfields are read from OpenStreetMap through the public Overpass servers. These receive only the place or the map area asked for, not your plans, name or other details.
Adverts and cookies
The site shows adverts from Google AdSense to pay for itself. Google and its partners may use cookies, or similar technologies, to show adverts and to measure how they perform. Personalised adverts, based on your visits to this and other websites, are only shown if you agree when asked. If you do not agree, Google may still show non-personalised adverts, which use cookies only for things such as limiting how often you see an advert and preventing fraud.
You can turn off personalised adverts across the web at adssettings.google.com. To learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Besides advertising cookies, the site sets no cookies of its own. Nothing about you is ever sold.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask what information is held about you, and ask for it to be corrected or deleted. Because your work is kept in your own browser, you can delete it yourself at any time with "New plan" in the site, or by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.
