Neil Baker's railway sleeper landscaping
Here are some pictures of the garden using nearly all of the 40 railway sleepers bought from you this summer. It really was exhausting moving all 40 from my driveway to the rear garden single handedly! I've now got forearms like Schwarzenegger! The railway sleeper wall was fixed using threaded galvanized rods into the ground. This meant drilling and removing each railway sleeper from the top one by one before re-assembly and sealing with exterior varnish. My "old faithful" electric drill burnt out in the process! The next phase will be adding lighting to the railway sleeper steps and decking before tackling the other 100 feet of our garden. Our cat "sweetums" loves sun-lounging on the railway sleepers as they warm up in the sun.
