With a digger on site (see previous post),it seemed a good idea to try to make a bit of progress on the front garden. Well, the path at any rate.
You might remember this:
That load of hardcore leading to the front door is the path! Well. Kind of. The idea is that there'll be a path, and then a circle at the end. So you'll go up the path, and then instead of a right angle bend left to the front door, there's a circle. Anyway. It'll eventually be York sandstone. For now, it just needed the circle digging out and level with the start of the path. Digger in, and this was the result:
Much of the hardcore is from the fireplace in the sitting room!
That earth bank isn't against the new wall, it stops just at the foot of it, which emphasises how much higher the road is than the front garden. It needs raking out properly, but as the digger's on hire, I did that and not raking. Garden is going to need lots and lots of work!
