I aint been able to fish for a while because of this wall that rain has stopped me finishing for the last 2 weekends.

Got some pics..
The old wall was leaning out quite badly.

Image

The old sandstone had to be cut in half to allow the new wall to be 2 courses higher when finished. They were quite large  Image

Image

Image

Image

Once it was all dug out we had to build a 9 inch block wall filled will steel bars and concrete to hold the soil and drive way back.

Very hard work to get it finished with the sh!t weather but finally got it done...

I wish.... Its next to seven arches in penkridge opposite the market.
Its the old station masters house and its massive, not something I could afford :-[
Lovely place though. We have done loads of work there.
