Bespoke Edwardian 3/4 span lean-to Greenhouse with porch

A Lean-To GREENHOUSE with Side Entry

For those seeking a lean-to greenhouse with a side entrance, combining our Edwardian 3/4 span with a porch is a practical and characterful solution.

When a lean-to is required with the door in the long side a popular and attractive solution is to combine the 3/4 span design with a porch entrance. A porch feature is not normally used on the shallower mono-pitch design, so if you want a lean-to with a porch it will need to be 3/4 span.

As already described, the porch can be a simple dormer retaining the rectangular footprint of the main greenhouse or a full porch with glazed sides, perhaps with double doors, adding a little more drama as well as offering greater flexibility with internal space. 

    Bespoke construction

    Absolute versatility no matter the project

    We are delighted to work on bespoke projects large or small; whether you’re replacing an old greenhouse and need a new glazed superstructure to suit existing brick walls or require a completely unique design from scratch.

    To fit into a corner between two walls, three walls, or to connect separate buildings, any of these features can be combined as required. Our Edwardian specification is extremely versatile and there is a great deal of flexibility to the shapes and designs which can be achieved. Our greenhouses are as individual as our customers and their homes and gardens.

    FLEXIBLE Access Options

    Where to place your greenhouse door

    The junction may also be between the gable end of a greenhouse and the wall against which it is fixed. A porch or dormer roof feature can allow for a door in the long side, or alternatively, the entrance can be positioned within the glazed gable.

    For a low rear wall (under 1.8m) (like 906), the ‘on-wall’ junction is necessary, as there is not enough height for a valley gutter connection.
