Kentish Ragstone Gabion wall with gabion steps and slab tops

on Friday, 29 October 2021.

I used 3 tiers of gabions to replace a 1.2m sleeper wall that had rotted through, and created a planting area within the tiers to reduce the apparent height of the wall. We created planters from left-over mesh to hang on the face of the wall. The wall is 0.5x0.5mm 4mm mesh and the stone fill is Kent Ragstone that goes well with the existing limestone patio.
