Mrs PR likes the lock. Took the TV bloke 18 days, incredible. Not sure it's a beginners project.

Most of the show gardens have a team of dozen or more building them over 18-20 days.

The sponsors such as Morgan Stanley etc put up thousands so it's not as if they are shopping around for a good deal they can get the best materials, builders

I believe the gardens are broken down and donated to community projects, hospices etc after the show has ended but how the hell are they doing to take the Visit Yorkshire Lock gate garden and rebuild it.

I'd like to see the show gardens them to the elements until next years show then see if they still look as inspirational

I've a long thin garden, lock gate would look fantastic at the top. Or (now in fantasy land) a railway children style tunnel, or the workshop but instead of the 3 wheeler a Dali esq style caddilac.
