Hi all.
Back again with another problem
Fence blew down last year in the wind, the last 2 panels on the end. Told by neighbour previous sections had fallen and been repaired before we bought the house. These are 6 ft wide panels and the posts had snapped due to rot. I cannot move the holes due to the panel size, I've also added a small 6ft post tied to the larger 8ft for extra support.
The old concrete was spread fairly widely so I had to dig a wider hole to get it out. The issue is now I can't get the post set properly due to how wide the hole is and the loose soil.
I've added in bits of old cement and rubble I've had laying round and tbh trying to get rid of to pack up the hole but I think they are too large.
I've added some pictures. I set the post last night before bed, It's like a clay like substance today and I can still rock the post more than I feel I should be able to.
I've got 1 bag of post crete in there. Should I take out the if lumps and break them up and poke some holes and add another bag of post crete in?
Any help is greatly appreciated thanks!
