I would appreciate any suggestions as I try to convert an old sheep barn to a weather tight wood shop. As it stands, it is basically a later-built shed roof lean-to on the original part of the barn which has since collapsed. I have saved/replaced the main wall it was leaning built on and I’m wondering what folks think would be the best way to 1)weatherize the perimeter, 2)make a foundation between the creosoted posts so that I could eventually make a solid floor and insulate the walls.(See Pics) Thanks in advance

Built from locally sawn hemlock, this functional outdoor feature uses structural screws and metal connectors for fast, sturdy construction.
