Pop a 1ft trellis up, things grow quicker along trellis and they are not easy to climb over without breaking them and making a lot of noise. There’s the added benefit that in breaking the trellis you get long spikes of wood that can puncture a spleen.
For plant ideas on the trellis, a nice bee friendly jasmine. Not spiky and the smell will fill the garden.
Cheers all. Sounds like the turfing should be pretty doable so I can ignore my girlfriend's suggestion of fake grass.
It's south facing. Anti-climb spikes are an option but they're all pretty ugly so far as I've seen. Anyone any suggestions for nice looking ones? I like the idea of blackberries or berberis for stuff to eat for me or the birds but I guess that it may not be the best idea in a small garden with a small child.
