What a transformation from the area I recall in the 70s – but well done for saving the area.

And the gateways into them, that seem like portals into another world!

I’ll look forward to enjoying old and new posts here and hope to return sometime soon.

There is a lot you can do with a courtyard garden and green is so restful against a constant pallete of grey and brick red. I can see cats, but perhaps other species are attracted by the flowers? I hope that you are blessed with early summer butterflies rather than greedy slugs!
