If you had a retaining tire wall.

If we have enough stone come out of the plot we’ll just have a drystone wall. From the digging we’ve already done, there’s very little stone. If we need a wall it’s only going to be between 3 & 4ft. We might just grade the ground back and not have a wall at all. It’s all very flexible and very difficult to visualise at the moment. We’ll have a better idea what there’s a big hole in the ground.

My house is built on very stony ground. While excavating a 4 foot wide area to give me a pathway to the rear of the house I uncovered enough stone to build a retaining wall. Its so stony, the house has no foundations and is built with brick. I live on a two directional slope and since the early forties when the house was built there has been no subsidence, which I am pleased about. I don't garden with a spade or fork, I use a pick!!!
