stash Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Just put some soil back plus turf and put a sun dial (or bird bath) on the mount top - and say its a garden feature ! Bottletopburly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweedledee Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Apparently most people used to have a well in their garden about 150 years ago. It could be useful if we have a drought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottletopburly Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 REbar banged into hole ,though made an interesting find after purchasing a set of garden driveway gates they use 6" x 5mm tube so would the dia difference be worth upgrading from 140mm to 150mm bearing in mind pier adapters are 140mm in dia if i bought an off the shelf one, the tube will only be 750 mm long .
