I've just had some footings laid for a 4ft high double skinned garden wall. The bricky who's doing the job doesn't seem to have gone deep enough as the top of footings are almost level with the surrounding ground in places.
Apart from the fact that the footings may be visible after the walls finished does it really matter? I've read that there should be around two courses of bricks below ground level but why is this important?
