Having a break from college

Have been brick laying this weekend, making a retaining edge for the paving in an ongoing project, a narrow town garden, where the existing linear path was to be retained.

The owners wanted an area for themselves plus a separate paved area for their dogs.

The bottom section was completed at the end of last year (apart from the planting), and we are now working on the area nearest to the house.

A pergola provides the transition between the two areas and once covered in climbers, will hopefully break up the linearity of the path.

The small fence is a temporary measure to keep the dogs out of the bottom section of the garden, and this will be removed once the yew hedge has grown into an adequate screen/barrier.
