my Garden wall has a slight lean in it, its built with old stone foundation and then breezeblocks on top of that,

my question is how can i make it stronger? if i was to render the stone work and the brezeblocks by building it up would that make it last longer? (almost making it thicker at the bottom and straightening at the top)

unfortunately i cannot afford to replace the walls entirely at this moment in time so im just looking at ooptions to strengthen it .. the leans arent so bad that its almost falling over, but they are visible to the untrained eye

I wouldn't say there's any danger of it falling over, more that the pointing in the stone work going an causing it to lean slightly.. It's not straight but it's probably been like it for many years (I moved in 2 1/2 years ago an it was like it then) so I don't think there is danger of it falling, just doesn't look the best!

Eventually I presume it will need replacing but I got enough to deal with inside the house at the moment! The previous owner had just put a wooden fence in front of it but it looked rubbish
