Jack's Land

Tradition has it that you should leave a part of your garden or farm untended to protect against the evil eye and stop malign forces. This patch of ground is known as the Devil's offering or Jack's Land. This is the latest photo of our garden redesign which Mr GBT has undertaken. He's now filled a skip with earth and the raised beds with soil. The gravel arrives next week and then the fun part...buying new plants. Which bit should we leave to free style naturally though...that has yet to be decided.
