This is very nice, lots of things you could do such as a planted up Pergola, furniture, Very Very large pots with and without feature plants, even a summerhouse/greenhouse, have you seen those big wooden raised beds they would look good too.

I have 2 patios one open and one enclosed with shrubs. I like gardens where you cannot see it all at once like a series of rooms where one can walk or sit in different zones depending on your mood.

You have done really well Doddy555. It is looking good, I like the idea of hanging baskets on the fence. :)) A bistro type table and chair at the bottom maybe...

What a transformation, into a very pretty and peaceful area. How about growing some things up the fence? Have you thought of clematis maybe? I have never had any success with clematis and envy anyone who can grow it, and there are so many varieties to choose from too.
