What a fantastic project that has been designed and built with skill and precision that would put to shame many professional landscapers. A big thank you to Mark for all his photos and description of his handywork. A wonderful project.

Great to see your photographs of your railway sleeper veggie beds. If you are as modest about your photography, as you are about your plant growing skills, you will clearly have a bumper crop of prize winning vegetables!

An impressive oak railway sleeper project in a beautiful vineyard setting. The geogrid matts are a brilliant way of creating and maintaining symmetrical paths around the raised vegetable beds. All credit to Alister's hard graft and professional design.

Bob & Margaret finally increased their old pond from 350 to 1200 gallons. Sometimes the best of plans are conceived gradually over years of thought, sketches and dreams! A wonderful transformation of their original pond, using new railway sleepers.

Every now and again you see a project that lifts the spirits. Such an exciting and impressive creation that is beautifully crafted and wonderfully original. Using old tropical hardwood railway sleepers as building blocks is both effective and remarkably attractive, and bedding the individual railway sleeper pieces on mortar frames each weathered timber piece beautifully. A mini masterpiece.

Heartless thieves have stolen a railway sleeper memorial bench from New Hall Valley Country Park in Sutton Coldfield. The railway sleeper bench was in memory of Chris's husband who died last year. She said "These people are without morals, without respect and have no idea the hurt and upset their actions have caused to me and my family. That bench means nothing to anyone else but it meant the world to me."
West Midlands Police stated that the railway sleeper bench was stolen from New Hall Valley Country Park sometime between Thursday, May 24 and Monday, May 28.

A beautiful classical design for a set of railway sleeper raised beds at different heights and shapes. Clearly, a lot of hard work was involved, not to mention the cutting of all the railway sleepers. Very impressive, and with a gorgeous glasshouse to top it off!
