There were only the two of us, guess that Rob - wise man - looked out of
the window and opted on staying in the dry as it was a pretty dismal day. We
decided that Chris was quite right about the footings by the gate being
decidedly narrow so relaid them with much larger stone at over 750mm / 30ins +
wide. It isn’t as wide as the surviving bits of wall but seems to be tapering
in all right. Some of the joints particularly on the cheek end by the gate
look pretty rough, but they are stable.
We pressed on till 2.30 by which time we were both pretty sodden I was
blending into the muddy landscape and Andy had come in his all weather - as in
all weather in the cab - Land Rover and we felt it was time to head for the
warm and dry.
