I think I shall leave it until February *before I look for it again.

Is that the bottom end of the garden Kay, I seem to remember it was
damp there?

The problem is the church next door, who are about 3 ft higher than us.
They have no drainage to their car park, so in heavy rain or snow melt,
the whole lot comes through the dry stone wall in a torrent and in to
the bottom of the garden. From there it drains into next door and the
garden beyond, which are marginally lower and the low point of the area.

It gets to about 6 inches deep and hangs around about 24 hours while it
slowly drains away.

That's why I have raised beds in that area, and a lower area as a
temporary pond. And a swamp cypress ;-)
