The garden from scratch

It’s definitely a mammoth task. The plan is all the main paths around the cottage garden will be dug somewhere between 2 & 3 foot deep. Lay drainage pipe then refill with stone/gravel. At that depth they won’t be much wider than the drainage pipe. The top 8 to 10 inches of the Path will be full width and filled with gravel. These drains will all lead into the ones we’ve already put in place that feed into the burn at the front. Hopefully that will work. If it doesn’t then I give up and the rushes will take over again.

This is what we did with our garden and its worked brilliantly
