    I want to over winter my potted strawberry plant in the shed. My question is will it need any watering during this period?

    Not sure what type of strawberry plant you have, but I assume they are ordinary strawberries and you want to maintain the same pot for next year. They are hardy, you just have to make sure the pot does not freeze. The plants will be dormant and need little water, but the roots will need some moisture so don't let them dry out completely.
