The head gardener is working well,what about a maze next or some hot beds to grow pineapples?

or "2 par terre and a grove of orange trees". Excellent recent work on the garden so far. If you haven't read it, can I suggest The Arcadian Friends by Tim Richardson? Excellent background reading for an 18c gardening project.

A pinery for the growing of pineapples is under construction - still fiddling with the roof. A maze is an interesting idea
