The houses come in a variety of styles and sizes, however, the majority are our standard unit of a 3m metre frontage by 2 metre depth houses, or multiples thereof, for example 6 metre frontage by 2 metre depth.
The houses used for traders operating bars or selling food are designed specifically to fit a particular location and vary in size and design. Some have internal seating areas and/or location specific requirements for example to fit around trees.
In some instances, the framework may also include various \"specials\" which are designed specifically to fit a particular location. These may incorporate internal seating areas or location specific features e.g. archways or structured to fit around existing trees. The Framework will be broken down into the following LOTS: Lot 1 - Rental of Wooden Houses (including Delivery, Erection, Dismantlement, Maintenance & Removal).
Lot 2 - Outright Purchase, Erection, Dismantlement, Maintenance, Delivery and Storage of the Wooden Houses.
