Advise needed

Hi,

Our lawn has gone a bit patchy over the winter. Here's a pic:


As you can see, its a bit patchy around the edges and there is quite a bit of moss at the top which extends around to the back of the garage. I will hopefully be re-seeding this coming weekend so I was just wondering what type of seed would be needed? The top of the garden doesn't get a lot of sunshine due to the trees at the back. Even though it is shady it is dry. Also has anyone got any other tips on looking after a lawn as I'm hoping to get it looking good this year.

Thanks.

 

Jon looks like the shrubs and trees are taking the moisture out of the ground you may be better redefining the edge of the grass cut it back and cut any encroaching roots, if you then keep this area dug over it will stop the roots invading again
