A client contacted us to design and build a small raised bed fron new railway sleepers.

The idea for the raised bed was to provide a small memorial plot for the clients pets. The raised bed was designed around two small existing apple tree trunks that the client wished to keep as a feature.

We decided to design a small hexagional raised bed around the existing features.

The site was levelled and the railway sleepers cut and mitred. 

The sleepers were screwed together at a double height and bolted together via coach bolts for a secure fitting.

We lined the bed with landscape fabric for weed control. The bed was filled with top soil and plantes added to finish.
