At WG Grace & Son Ltd, we specialise in the design and manufacture of traditional greenhouses, including our Lean-To and 3/4 Span options. The eaves height is often set lower than the freestanding range and depending on the back wall height will form the style and how the structure will look.
If you choose to utilise an existing wall, the siting of your greenhouse will often take full advantage of the sun’s rays, particularly from a westerly aspect. The eaves height is typically lower than our freestanding models, which allows for a seamless integration with your property. Our bespoke service ensures that each greenhouse is tailored to your specific requirements, resulting in a structure that complements your garden beautifully.
We have successfully built three-quarter designs onto older greenhouse bases, achieving a practical depth and central staging that optimises your growing area. Lean-To greenhouses are known for capturing the full impact of sunlight, making them an ideal choice for nurturing a variety of plants.
Installing designs to an existing site
Quite often we design either a lean-to or threequarter span designs to fit an existing base and establish what was there before. The design shown to the right shows a lean-to greenhouse connected to an old stone wall.
The Three-Quarter span design shown below was carefully designed to site level with the existing brick wall for the purposes of planning.
