Have a really old garage with concrete blocks that needs to go and be replaced with new bigger one. No idea of cost? Need a rough idea.
Thanks

Medium to large is no good as a description as it's relative. Round here a medium garage is like ours (a 3 car garage with workshop space) a large garage is like next doors (takes 8 cars)
At our old house a medium sized garage would take one car & some storage, a large would take 2 cars)
Try either describing size or what you need it to take (1/2/3 etc car, storage etc)
Please check the planning rules regarding outbuildings
You can get various types of construction
Sectional concrete with simulated brick finish, Timber garages some prices here
which might be worth comparing.
Otherwise I'd just get some builders out to quote as the variables which affect price are your site, access, location, soil conditions etc rather than size. There may not be much difference in build cost for a 1 car garage v a 2, whereas somewhere with awkward access or requiring PP will cost more.
