Halfway through the second week of the garden renovations and the focus moved from the back to the front. The raised beds at the back were filled with lovely new soil and given a final coat of dazzling white paint. At the front the old wall was carefully dismantled and the gravel removed. Tomorrow the paving bricks will arrive for both front and back, and I will hopefully have a quote from the blacksmith for the custom railings (which won’t be able to be fitted until well after the rest of the garden is completed).
