I think the best I can do is to refer you to my post of the 25th of July
which was queried by Will but I only retain posts for 48 hours so I
don't have his reply to hand. A search of the archives should find it.


Here is Will's resonse to that post

I thought the idea of a walled garden was to give shelter from wind and also
allow growing space for climbers etc like peaches. It will also give some
added warmth in the evenings due to conduction from the walls. But hot air
rises so I'm not sure the idea of warm air becoming "trapped" is correct?
More likely is that the surrounding land is re-radiating and is more of a
"bowl" effect where there is less mixing and a lot of heat going in? I have
certainly been in western Scotland when the heat has been amazing looking
out over an azure blue sea - just like the Med, which I too have never
visited :-)

Thanks, Graham.
