    Good morning all.I have renewed 6 fence panels and now I have two more to renew but I looked at the mess in this area and I thought why not change this whole area at the top of the garden:smile:
    That will mean disposing of 8 old fence panel moving the arbor and the greenhouse, moving some soil and replanting and some old bricks to get rid of(that will mean approx 30 bags to take round the local recycling center,as I have knocked a little wall down which separated this area from the rest of the garden;):smile: I have just stopped for a while to change as I am soaking wer working in the rain;)

      :ideaIPB: I have an idea Woo! I believe it was you asking on another thread about incinerators which made me think. As a temporary measure you could create a raised fire pit with the bricks in the middle of this patch and burn all the old fencing in it which will cut out the need for lugging it elsewhere. I think I'd move the arbor first though to be on the safe side. :) The ash can then be dug into the ground after.

      Ooooo you're going to have fun recreating this part of your garden, keep us updated please! :)

          If you burn them in the garden you will have a few nails about, looks like you had a smashing time you :snork:

                              Woo, you could 'plant' them upright in your beds and attach planters. Or may be a distance apart and attach trellis in between for a climber or two.......but there's also the local tip! :)
