Have you considered the cheaper to ship Fiberglass Manhole Cover kits like this one...

Also, Mark's right on w/ the metal detector note above and have you found anything cool yet digging/raking through the dirt?
Such a cool building!

Yes, I have Pete. I even looked at that one. You can buy it $15 cheaper directly from the manufacturer, free shipping. https://standartpark-usa.com/collect...er-home-design

Problem is, it just isn't big enough. I would have to build a huge tapered base for it. I did find one that is larger, but the price goes up by the square apparently. Still, at $545, not too bad. I will still take more engineering to support the base.

The metal one I am looking at has a huge base, and will not take nearly as much work prepping the hole. It will, however, be considerably more difficult to put in place.

This is really cool! I live in 175-year-old house and have found some interesting things nothing quite like this. It definitely makes you think about the idea if the proverbial walls could talk what stories they might tell and what went on. Good luck with this project
