The Greenhouse

We already have a 'working greenhouse' in the garden, which is of aluminium construction and stands on a raised wooden floor. We wanted a greenhouse that was more aesthetically pleasing to the eye, where we could grow a range of plants that would not normally survive the winter outside - directly in the ground rather than just in pots. The site for the new greenhouse was to be at the far end of the new long border.
