Please help with my grass

So we are having issues that i cant work out. We have basically and island of grass with stones all around. Its only a small bit 5x2m ish. We are having what i assume are drainage issues. Ive tried drilling holes and filling with membrane/stones but still no luck.

Can somebody advise what i need to do? Im really considering binning the grass for full stones. Justs looks a boggy mess. This is supposed to be grass for boggy soil

 

Are we to deduce that it is recently sown seed ie this year ?
In which case my advice would be to wait until Spring(early March ) and then top dress with a product such as :
Neudorff Clean Lawn Treatment.
Try to avoid walking on it while it is wet. If you suspect that the surface is compacted, pierce it with a fork when dry before feeding.

 

This is a couple year old grass, its juat growing patchy boggy mess

 

What prep did you do before sowing seed?
That's the most important bit, and it can define how well grass thrives. Your general climate and conditions are also factors, but the drainage is one of the most important things, and that's where the prep of the soil comes into it.

 

I dug up about two ton of concrete, put soil to a depth of about 8inch ish then 2/3inch of top soil then some grass seed, cant remember what but good for boggy soil as that was our garden at the time. Its still boggy and i cant figure out why

 

If the soil's heavy, and doesn't drain well, and you get regular rain, it'll tend to stay soggy.
If you lifted concrete first, the ground underneath will have been very compacted, and if that ground wasn't sufficiently broken up, just adding soil alone can then be quite a dense, heavy mix. It would probably have been better to use a mix of compost and/or rotted manure to the exisiting soil, and leaving it for a few months to break up a bit before levelling, raking, and then adding another layer of lighter material -compost etc, before seeding.
You'll probably need to spend time in spring aerating it, and then doing that quite often to improve it. The other option is to raise it further by adding layers of compost, with grit or fine gravel mixed in, with a suitable edging to contain it, and then reseeding. When I created a new lawn here, it was over a similar site of large slabs and gravel, with compacted clay underneath it all. I used a mix of soil, some of the existing gravel, and good quality compost, to counteract our wetter conditions, with a raised timber edging around it. You don't need a huge depth of soil for decent grass, so the edging only has to be a couple of inches.

A mix of both aerating and raising the level might be the best solution, or else - possibly start again with that better drained base.

 

Will give it a go. Been driving me insane

 

A lot also depends on how big the area is, and therefore the amount of money, time and effort it takes to make it half decent. If you aren't desperate to have grass, it might be easier to get rid of it and go with gravel or slate or similar.
Even a simple, planted bed of evergreen ground cover may be easier to create and maintain.
