Queen Elizabeth Hall Roof Garden - till 4 September

The newly installed roof garden on the Queen Elizabeth Hall on the South Bank Centre was truly lovely.  Complete with cafe bar, benches, tables and chairs tucked in amongst the raised beds of a beautiful potager-cum-allotment, and a marvellous roofscape view, it cheered me no end.  In the breezy sunshine of a summer's evening the vegetable beds did a very good job of demonstrating why the edible is truly ornamental.  The meandering wildflower bed, full of native trees and flowers, completed the setting.
