It's a pretty low traffic spot and no kids yet but I do hope my dog doesn't decide it looks like fun to dig 😅
I've consulted my Dad (this is the thing I ought to have done in the first place as he has a masters in farming and is very green fingered...)
I'm going to basically plough the current soil in and mix in a bag of granite sand while I'm at it to provide long lasting soil acidification.
Then I'm leveling it and packing it to help with moisture retention and adding a layer of 50:50 topsoil/ peat mix on top.
I'm going to try transplanting some moss on to this then but worst case scenario it should be a good hang for some moss to take again of its own accord

Fingers crossed.
