I would like to have some way of covering the side return to my house. In the winter I'd like a waterproof covering so that I can dry laundry outside, and ideally in summer I'd like to be able to change this to a lighter, floaty fabric for shade and prettiness.
The floor is concrete, the space is about 2.5m x 3m. The third 'wall' is a rickety fence that is now 90% ivy and 10% timber.
My options, I think, are,
A large parasol.
A canopy attached the wall that can be wound out.
Hooks and screws in to the house masonry, with a fourth corner requiring a new post.
A pergola with fabric going on top.
My preference is for the most complicated, expensive option the pergola.
Any thoughts?
