There is something very satisfying about building a bridge, especially when it cuts across a stretch of water.

Great to see the photos of Stuart constructing his raised bed. New oak railway sleepers are surprisingly heavy, and all credit to his 'two wheeled' solution that enabled him to move them singlehandedly around the garden. An impressive and sturdy looking planter.
