                                                                                                      ..in faded black ink 59
  

  You will find an alteration in the garden on you Return.
  

  I have remade the Long Patch at the Bingley Road
  

  side of the Garden + put down a heavy   coping.  on the low
  

  side of the path on the opposite side. I have made a
  

   ..orkey. the full length including the greater part of the
  

  the hen run this is about 3-0 Wide and about 2-0 high.
  

  This has risen the level of the Beds very considerably
  

  and I have lowered the top end where they form the
  

    ..Lawn.  about 2-0 all the old fruit trees + the Sycamore
  

  in the centre are either down or coming down (also the
  

  poplar in the Kitchen garden +1 at least if not 3
  

  in the Hen Run)  The old Rockery by the Slide +the path

  at the side are now included in the Bed which looks
  

  as big again- I intend planting the first bed with Rasps
  

  the Middle with Currant Bushes +the next with gooseberries
  

  on the low side of the path I intend fixing
  

  a fence +have ordered Logan Berries for here from The
  

  Coop Nursery-I am ordering 40 Logan Fruit Trees for
  

  the fence alongside hen run on the top of the 3 Beds
  

  I am going to Break up another about 3ft wide +
  

  fix another fence upon which I propose to have another lot
  

  of Fruit trees something like this.
  

   ...an ink drawing which consists of 3 equal size rectangles filled with , from left to right, an arch way, three trees with 4 two inch vertical lines at equal distance crossing them, a similar size rectangle with 14 diagonal lines and the third box contains three figures that appear to be trees.  There is some writing that looks like they are labels for the drawing but they are too faint to read

  The old currant Bushes in Kitchen Garden are coming out
  

  +I intend having fruit trees on the walls instead
  

  The Rasps now on Hall side I intend taking out
  

  + Replacing with Blackberries. So you see things will
  

  eventually look much different (We will now leave the garden)
