In a lockdown garden; 56 St Agnes Road, Birmingham

For many, 2020 has been a year of challenge and uncertainty. But one of the constants has been the sheer joy that our gardens have given us during the lockdown period. For the owners of 56 St Agnes Road in Birmingham, Michael and Alison Cullen, it was a year to reflect and perfect their lovely garden in readiness for 2021. Here they share their garden during lockdown.
