    After getting back from holiday on Friday, decided to knock down the old wall only to find 2 more walls behind it. A brick wall, and then a stone wall behind that one!!!

    Still, a little bit of progress. [​IMG]

    Decided to knock the wall down as the forecast for Saturday was a bit bad, so couldn't finish off the top wall however the heavy rain that the BBC said we would have didn't turn up. :mad:

    All the best

    Especially the children, they loved moving earth around, under strict supervision by a grown up child. ;)

    Its slowly coming together, but I still have a lot of hard work to do, about another 9 months depending on funds available. [​IMG]

    fantastic rob, loved the steps and lighting, I think you need a good back massage after all that hard work.

    I've got a problem here - can't get to any of the photos, and I can't see your avatar Robert! Clearly the others can, and I'm missing out on something good!

    Agree with WG lights on steps are an excellent idea.

    It must be so hard to plan the whole project at once and get it right, we are still growing into our garden after 20 years!!!
