His agent claimed the video was taken ten weeks ago — before the coronavirus lockdown — despite the star wearing shorts and leaves being on the trees.
Paul Salmon built the “lads’ pad” near a mobile home site in Gainsborough, Lincs, last year.
Footage shows him unlocking the door and saying: “Here we are lads!”
Empty beer bottles are spread around and a pal admits: “We had a party the other night.”

The owner then announces: “Paul Gascoigne in the old shed. Few beers. Gazza’s in the house.”
As a pool table is readied, he adds: “Luke’s having a game with him — £500.”
And turning to the ex-Newcastle and Spurs midfielder, he asks: “Gazza, is this the best beer shed you’ve been in?”
The Geordie, 52, is cheered as he responds with an “OK” sign. Others are shown sinking beers, playing cards and watching TV.

Gazza says to the camera: “Can’t beat this f****** place — unreal.”
But another video later showed the owner’s furious wife Elizabeth smashing up the shed.
She rants: “You’ve pushed me too far. Too far. There.
“Now sit in that. Sit in that.
“Torturing me long enough.
“Do not come in anymore at two in the morning. There’s your pub . . . ”

Earlier this month, The Sun revealed twice-wed Gazza has shacked up with single mum Wendy Leech, 43, after meeting her on holiday in Spain.
They were spotted walking her dogs near to her £65,000 flat in Salford, Gtr Manchester.
In January, he said he had found peace thanks to pellets which make him feel sick if he drinks much.
