may be a bit late for this time but i am also in devon and am a joiner, as a bit of a change from windows, doors and stairs i enjoy making hen coops and animal shelters, not yet tackled a farrowing ark but am sure i could get my head round it, if you are ever interested then feel free to email me! where in devon are you?

we are near okehampton so west devon (well as far north as west devon gets actually).  I am sure I would be corrected but dimensions are 8 x 8 and they look like half a large round sheep feeder covered in something (metal usually) with ply both ends if you are being posh I think a floor on some sort of skids but most important are the farrowing bars.

I am no expert and I am sure someone will correct me if any of this is wrong.
