We had some turf laid in the garden of our new build about 6 months ago.
Most of it has taken well. However, for about a 3 feet in width along the
length of a north facing wall that we border, the grass is very thin. When
its cut, there is quite a bit of mud, and the grass that is there is
patchy. I would like to sow some additional seed to try and bolset the
turf. What type of grass seed should I go for, and any tips on sowing ??
(when to do it, quantities, watering etc etc)

Sounds like a drainage problem or lack of enough air.

Or simply the effect of shade, perhaps. The garden centre or DIY shed
will have grass seed blends designed for shade, and there should be
good instructions on the packet.
