north east facing garden
Hi we are moving house and have found one we really like however it has a north east facing garden. Which i was very disapointed to find out. Can anyone tell me will it be shady most of the time? we have visited it a 3pm and it was quite sunny. The garden was beautiful but i don't want a garden that will only get a little bit of sun. I don't want to make a big mistake any advice much appreciated.

In midwinter it rises SE and sets SW, in midsummer it rises NE and sets NW. So in midsummer, even a N facing garden will get sun early morning and late afternoon. The sun also gets higher in the sky in midsummer, so the length of the house shadow will be less - indeed, you may get very little shadow at midday (or 1pm BST). At the moment, you're seeing it at its best - the longest day is about June 21, so it will be like this or better till about mid July. -- Kay |
