Brick, soil, turf

Hi all, new here. I have recently moved house and the back garden was half turfed, half concrete. I have dug the concrete up and it appears that below the concrete is roughly 3" soil, then beneath that a layer of brick! My question is, if I put another 2" of soil on top, can I lay turf onto this without digging down to get the brick out? You can't feel the brick underfoot or anything, but it's down there!

Thanks!

 

You need to get all the builders rubbish out of the soil down to a depth of at least 9" - you can chuck some soil on top, but it will never be as good as having sorted the site out just-this-once

 

Ok, thanks for the responses! Looks like it's time for skip number 2 then. It's strange, the bricks are really neatly laid, like a wall under the soil on it's side. Why would they have done this in the first place??

 

"Why would they have done this in the first place??"

Maybe that was the "patio", and then someone covered it with concrete (to add strength maybe)

But that's just a guess

 

It's possible, after all there's no accounting for taste!
