Basically just extended my block paved driveway and left a couple of metres spare for a wall for a brick planter.
Been toying with ideas for shape and finally agreed in the ones in the pics.
Its about 7m long. I already have raised areas in other areas of the garden that the were built at the the time the house was built and they have enginnering brick coping to the top of the (low walls).
Laid the footing and come up with the idea of a design which i think looks pleasing to the eye, in keeping with the design of existing and a nice challenge to myself.
Ive built the dwarf wall to my conservatory so thought id have a go.
Ideas on design approval welcomed, as are comments for changes.
Starts of single skinned and once the feature 45 deg are laid, the goes double skinned to allow my engineering coping course.
Only laid 2 courses of engineering so far and obviously rest is dry laid.
Planning on using my left over shingle (from old drive) to bank up on inside up to the brick face. Plan on using some weeper tube to allow drain off.
