Just a winding path finishing up in the right hand corner, at the moment. I will remove the lawn then maybe have a rethink.
But whatever we decide we will have more planting space, i hope. ;D

Thanks everyone for your nice comments, Brenda is happy with the result.
Will look out for a garden arch to go where the path goes to the right. just at the back of the conifer is a small patch of gravel that you cannot see from the house, i have not decided what i could place there yet.

I wonder what the reaction would be when the youngest of the grandchildren walked through the arch and came across this round the corner.
