The Wall!


The wall is pretty much done and the work is cracking along around the back. Here the patio area is being finished off. We did have a differnce in levels when we 'dropped' the house down 300cm, hence the small wall to handle the difference. All paving is natural sandstone so varies quite a bit on colour and composition, and we also mixed up sizes, and it works really well. It looks fairly grey here, but it is mainly a sandstone buff colour, and that should show better when it is cleaned up.





The wall and paving from the side path, this was where the conifers were, and despite the eye watering cost of replacing them, the space it has freed up is more than we thought, Just to the left bottom of the picture, there is a small patch of earth, which is where we will plant the wall climbers.



The wall from the outside, it must be the longest wall in Nantwich, and the insets you can see give it the strength, further down these are replaced by pillars
