Third collage

The third collage of all trees gone and most of the debris cleared. We can now see how much damage to the fence and wall those tress, hedges and shrubs had done. Actually that's not fair, it's really down to the people before us who didn't maintain it all properly.

Anyway, the damage is done now and we have had to make a choice. We could have the wall repointed and a fence placed inside it or we can knock the wall down and build another. Option one we felt would look naff and option two was far to expensive for our budget. Option3 it is then. A wall of blocks, rendered and painted white to match the house. I do have reservations that the 'pillars' at each gateway will prove a problem but we have to wait and see. Work starts Tuesday
