If you can get hold of a copy "Shrubs for Milder Counties" by W Arnold
Foster which tells how they managed to create the garden at Eagles Nest on
the top of Zennor Moor. is full of ideas on plant choices creating wind
breaks (and staking !) A visit to Long Cross Victorian garden on the north
coast may also yield some ideas

I just bought: 'Shrubs for the Milder Counties' by W. Arnold-Forster from Amazon. Thanks to those posters who suggested it.
