Default Newcomer desperately needs help!

Hi there,

I really need help with my boggy garden.

My garden is in 2 levels. The bottom level has a wooden patio so is fine but the upper part of the garden is absolutely soaking!

Even in the summer, it is never really dry and the ground cracks open with the weight of the watery ground lower on the slope.

Currently, there is a small green patch surrounded by a stone path but we are wanting to lawn the entire area as we have a little one and the stones are not child-friendly.

Someone suggested digging a trench at the top of the garden but I don't think this will be enough.

Any ideas please?
