Asbestos in my outhouse?

Hello,

The roof in my brick outhouse (we use it as a shed) has finally bit the dust and has a leak. The ceiling is bowing in and I’m looking at getting it replaced (the entire roof).

I’ve noted this isn’t the first time this has happened as there are scrape marks on the ceiling where the door has hit in the past (I moved here in 2017).

Anyway, with this recent focus on the ceiling I got worried, could I be looking at asbestos insulation here? Without realising this whole time.

Any professional judgement is welcome with the attached pictures.

Cheers!

I doubt that its asbestos but simply bring the boards down in sheets without smashing it and releasing dust - wear a mask.
the bulging board(s) will come down easiest.
