Back garden project

Whilst waiting for some trim work to be milled for the study/porch, we turned our attention to the back garden, we needed to take out some earth to level it with the rest of the garden, which was leaving us with about 2 foot height difference, so we had to put a retaining wall in, and to keep things in line with the rest of the plot we also did a 1 ½ foot retaining wall at the back, which will be easier for putting new trees in (less digging), both walls are about 110 feet long, all steel post are 2 foot in the ground and set in concrete, next week the railway sleepers will be put in place for the back wall ( these are just placed for distance marking)
