We just spent a lovely weekend with my sister-in-law at her cottage in Dorset. It was Netherbury's Gardens Open weekend and - unsurprisingly - we had a Sunday of torrential rain but luckily we had made the most of Saturday!
Sadly, it was probably the last time I shall visit the cottage that my brother and sister-in-law restored as reluctantly Lulu has decided to sell it.
It is a happy cottage with 250+ years of history, a delightful cottage garden and some picture-perfect windows - as you can see.
Having developed my small urban garden from what started, 25 years ago, as a vegetable patch, it gives me such pleasure I want to share it....

Small Garden Story
Over some 15 + years, I have been photographing the evolution of my small (85 x 15 foot) garden and it seems a waste not to put these records into some sort of context. Beginning here in April 2010 this Blog is intended to both act as a diary and to share past and present successes (and some failures), pleasures and disappointments with fellow garden-lovers. In due course, I intend to fill in some of the background and early days but that will have to wait until the winter months!
