The side of the house was shaped in a triangle, so we managed to create enough space for a small garden shed in the corner. The patio extension opened up the whole area to incorporate a good-sized table and chairs as well as plenty to keep the kids entertained.
By the back fence was some old metal fencing and, even though they were not overlooked by neighbouring properties, the fence gave on so much privacy. We created a new curved edge and planted red robins to add some privacy but also trees that could be controlled in shape and size.
Under the large oak tree, we created a new lawn area and covered the beds with bark to help suppress weeds.
