This greenhouse once lived on a nursery in Uplowman. With the help of my 8 year old son and a rather aged van, it was dismantled and transported to our back garden, where it was partly re-erected. Only 2/3 of the width was utilised as it rests against a retaining wall adjacent to the railway embankment. In order to create raised beds on either side, the central path is sunk about 18". To the rear stands a 1000litre IBC tank which collects water from the roof. The greenhouse is currently being refurbished as many of the timbers now require replacing. Grapevines have been trained along the roof beams, being rooted outside and entering from each end.
