Allotment Greenhouse

I was going to start to build up the brand new Greenhouse down the Allotment today but along with my mum we measured between the raised beds and found out we only have 5 1/2 foot of space which would not be enough for the 6 x 6 greenhouse. I instead decided to half the two raised beds and therefore instead of them being 1 metre wide they are now 1/2 metre wide. I have also stacked the middle raised bed from where the Greenhouse is going onto the other green raised bed making it slightly deeper. I also decided I would take up the raised bed from under the arch so that I have more space to walk into the Greenhouse. I will put some concrete slabs down as well as some chip bark to make it feel more open. I have about 9 foot between the two raised beds now so will chip bark down the side of the greenhouse both sides. The Green raised bed which was under the arch has been put onto the other green raised bed to make it deeper and I have also decided I am going to order some more plastic lengths for the terracotta raised beds in order to make them deeper too and therefore give the same appearance. The Greenhouse will now be built tomorrow (weather permitting)
