With the gate now hung, we had to remove part of the end wall to allow the gate to close.

This is how it was before we started.




You can’t beat a big digger to make light work of demolishing a wall. With that cleared the first foundation stones go in. Then it’s just a case of laying rock in a brick wall staggered fashion. You need to keep an eye on making sure the gate side edge is vertical otherwise the gate won’t close or your have a horrible gap.

And done. Well not quite. With a hose on the digger legs ripped off with a rock, we can’t move the tractor till that’s been fixed. Once that’s done, we can get some more rock that we dug up clearing the Meadow Field to finish the job.
