About 4ft
If it's on solid stone, then just build it directly off the stone.

Its not flat as under all where we live is solid limestone rock so i need to do a little foundation for a flat level for the bricks
If the difference in level is not too much, can you make it up by mortaring in brick/tile etc in any hollows, rather than pouring a level concrete strip right along?
I could but its not the cost of concrete foundation thats problem but if it dont need to be as high as it would be on soil base id rather not have a higher than needed being on limestone rock
