Think I might go for Siberian Larch for the cladding. Hardest of the softwoods and very high in natural oils/resin so requires no protection.
Then again when I actually work out exactly what I need and get a quote I might change my mind!

When you work out the cost it'll be wickes best and creosote.
When i did all my floor boards and joists downstairs it was over a grand just in timber.

if you do use creosote mix it with old engine oil as it lasts so much longer!

Got the base done earlier and rewarded myself with a boat cruise with a few ciders.
