Hard to tell from this pic but I like the idea of something like the Beningbrough pergola. Obvs a micro sized version but would create areas of dappled shade. Its somewhere I've been a couple of times and inspired the planting in my garden. I'd love a nice brick wall to build a pergola off of.

Your thoughts please.
