Hi Lesley and Pete,

Cheers,

Hi Pete,
This probably isn’t much help but… we have a Listed ‘Paddy’s hut’ in Greater Manchester:
http://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1067886
‘Garage, at one time used as Irish farm labourers' sleeping quarters.’
The HER entry records Mon types of ‘hut’ and ‘garage’, suggesting a lack of precise terms in the Thesaurus.
Best wishes,
Lesley

Subject: Friday (OK Weds Before Christmas) Question
Hi there,
Can anyone suggest a thesaurus term for a building used for temporary or seasonal agricultural workers' accommodation? The term used in the report is a 'Paddy Shant' but whilst there is 'Agricultural Workers Dwelling' available in HBSMR/FISH, this implies a permanent residence, not short-term accommodation for harvest workers etc. Likewise there is a term for a temporary worker's settlement for e.g. building a canal, railway or reservoir, but this is a 'camp' not a single building on a farmstead.
Presumably the 'Paddy' element relates to the employment of itinerant Irish workers here in the NW. I've also heard these referred to as 'Paddy Houses' and 'Potato Houses'.
