A couple of years ago this customer had to wrap these old rotten sleepers in steel banding to hold them together, but eventually even that did not hold up to the great British weather and the time came to replace them.
After pricing up replacement railway sleepers both new and reclaimed it became apparent that this would be a costly and difficult exercise, so we built something equally beautiful with 4×4 treated timber and we were all pretty pleased with the result. After lining these new bespoke planters with a heavy-duty membrane we topped it off with some decking boards to make a convenient seat from which to admire the garden.
We even managed to save the existing steel arch complete with mature climbing honeysuckle, as well as build in and area at the centre for a future water feature to be installed (hopefully by us)
