Reg -- what a beautiful view! Just a suggestion, if you do plan a
conservatory, first read Beverly Nichols "Green Grows the City" -- his
description of his awkward walled garden (somewhere in London) and the way
he solved his major problem by building a conservatory is a classic. But
then again, maybe you have read Nichols since he is a classic himself.
My husband and I are so jealous of your brick wall, here in America most
fences are made of wood!
