Definitly Needing sorted out. Right now is the best time to get it Sprayed With Moss killer and Selective Weedkiller. Then in 2 weeks time scarify and areate it and seed and topdress it. You'll probably be left with bare soil once you've scarified it as it need going over up and down the way accross the way and on both diagonals to get all the moss out then I'd spray it with moss killer afterwards then areate and seed it and topdress. I've got 3 of my fortnightly gardens I'm scarifying and Areating next weekend. And a further 6 to do in August.

We moved into our forever home last week and weathered 2 storms (cross fingers without too much damage!) The garden is large, beautiful and has 5 tpo pine trees and lots of rhododendrons but it currently looks like a scene from Glastonbury - completely waterlogged (as it’s a clay base).
