Remember this?
It was only two days ago.
Well this is where we're at now. It is gone, in its entirety.
Gone but not forgotten as I rescued one of the coping bricks, they have the Star of David on them, which intrigued me. So a bit of research later and we discovered that the Staffordshire Blue Bricks originated in either Oldbury or West Bromwich. The former would be serendipity as the contractor we are using to build this project is from Oldbury. However, the bricks have a 'W' in the middle of the star, which indicates they are from West Brom. Still, not far away.

I'm rapidly running out of extras but I've added one of the bricks as I think this is an important historic record. It's now in my back garden for safe keeping.
