Looks good Loxley I am think of getting rid of my postage stamp front lawn to. How come you are going with slate for the path ? I see it will match the fence and divided the garden up better but it may look a bit coarse against the smooth stone slabs when they are clean. I wonder how long it takes to put a box ball / architectural plant at the end of the path in the other bed
Looking at it I think it looks really improved and continuing to improve.
I think my biggest suggestion would be that you want a focal point in the back left corner almost as far as the rear wall, so that your eyes are drawn beyond the block you have created which will conceal the shed.
It could be a gazebo, or urn, or nymph, or bright bird feeder, or interesting plant, or even one of those interesting fake mirrored doors so they all think you have another garden beyond.

I have nasty concrete paving by the house, with the usual manhole covers in it. Slate chippings was the easiest way of dealing with the area that didn't involve breaking up the concrete by hand!

I've made a similar decision about lawn, I just haven't told my wife yet! 🙈
