My son-in-law has planted a lawn (not from seed) and it has done well.
one big problem. There is very little top soil and underneath is all
clay. the garden is always very wet because of very poor drainage. Even
putting in drains probably wouldn't solve the problem as only that area
would drain. Any ideas ?

Is there anywhere for the water to go? Water finds its own level and you
MUST be able to get it off sight. Question. Where?

Only you can answer that one. Look around you at neighbour's gardens and the
road. Are they higher than your ground? Yes? Problem :-((
