going to be OK or scrap the idea.
Any advice will be welcome.

Most of the useful light will come in through the roof, so if that's the best place in the garden for it, then go for it.
make sure there's enough space between the greenhouse and the fence for you not to need to dismantle the fence every time that side if the greenhouse needs some attention.
If it's very close the the fence, the side of the greenhouse nearest the fence won't get much light in. Consider lining it with something that is a good heat insulator. Then have the plants on that side on staging, and you can use the space under for storage, for seeds that haven't yet germinated, bulbs that are dormant, etc.
