I have decided on the next part of our rambling garden to attack.
I have always been unhappy with the area beside the entrance as
it has a lot of overgrown trees that are looking very straggly. I
am restricted in what I can do as we are in a conservation area
that prohibits cutting down trees over a certain size. However
there is a lot of thin stuff in there and I have decided that it
is all going to come out this autumn, this will hopefully let in
a bit more light so that the laurel hedge I have been nurturing
can develop.

This is what it looks like from the outside.

I look forward to seeing the after pictures. Will you rebuild the
stone wall?

No, I don't think it ever was a wall, just a bit of stone
retaining the bank.

Very Interesting,
I had some shrubbage like that around my entrance at one time, but
like you have mentioned i took the chain saw to it. The entrance
looks so much better without all that shrubbage.
