Garden Pergola Kits – What You Need to Know
What is a garden pergola?
A “pergola” is a garden feature forming a shaded walkway or passageway of pillars that support cross beams and (sometimes) an open lattice, upon which woody vines can be trained. It may also be part of a building, as protection for an open terrace. The origin of the word is the Late Latin ‘pergula’, referring to a projecting eave. The term was borrowed for English from Italian, with its use dating back to 1675.“Garden pergolas” can be built by a competent builder or, for convenience and value, delivered to your home in DIY kit form.
