Currently it’s got some grass and native violets that are trying valiantly to survive but the plan is to pave over it and have some box hedges enclosing an area with a feature in the middle - I haven’t quite decided what yet - maybe a bird bath or if I feel extravagant, a cherub statue on a pedestal. Stay tuned for before and after pics. Wish me luck!
