I have fond memories/recurring nightmares of staying in that precariously placed garden shed on the Grepon variously 1973-5. I see from a post in 2005 that it had gone by that date, but does anyone know what year it actually disappeared? I assume it wasn't replaced.

It was still there in 1991,but in a poor state of repair

Thanks for this. It must have been very vulnerable to rockfall etc, perched there. Good base, though, to get an early start on the route. Once got stormed in for a couple of days with 8 people and a family of mice - very cosy.
