    You may, but i think it will take you about 5-7 hours to drive it from my house to Margam, and you will have to ask for permission from the highways to drive it across the old Severn Birdge

      It looks like that lawn is in a corner of their garden. Maybe you can buy that corner from them, put a gate between the two of you and a mini hedge between your bit and theirs. Then you can have your own mini-allotment :blue thumb:

        Hiya @shiney :)

        Their garden is actually 'L' shaped. The bit you can see part of is maybe 100ft long? The part you can't see is probably 150ft or more. I know the previous owner enquired about buying some of it, but the owner declined. I was thinking maybe he would like to rent me some space. But it would all hinge on whether or not he would agree to me making an opening to allow access.
        I won't enquire just yet, but maybe in a couple of months.

        Cheers...Freddy

                Is it worth or even beneficial to tidy up the garden?
