Kentish Ragstone Gabion wall with gabion steps and slab tops

I used 3 tiers of gabions to replace a 1.2m sleeper wall that had rotted through, and created a planting area within the tiers to reduce the apparent height of the wall. We created planters from left-over mesh to hang on the face of the wall. The wall is 0.5x0.5mm 4mm mesh and the stone fill is Kent Ragstone that goes well with the existing limestone patio.

An example of Gabion Seating around a firepit in a country setting.

The Gabions are in 4mm, cut down to 381mm high. They had to be shorter due to the thickness of the sleepers. The Sleepers were clamped down by fixing a piece of timber under the lid, at either edge of the basket, upwards to the sleeper.

The gabion basket under the table  was 457mm high again with 100mm sleepers on top.  The sleepers are separated by 8mm to stop water pooling in the surface.

Adrian's Immaculate Modern garden entertaining space

With an eye for design Adrian has cleverly transformed his back garden from a difficult to use sloped area into a modern entertaining space. Utilising clean straight lines and cleverly mixing materials, (including 2 types of stone infill) we think he has achieved a spectacular result. The gabions function both as a retaining wall, to flatten out the lawned area and as a framework for the seating area.

Slipping burn endagering property

Slipping burn endagering property

A burn had eroded the ground away and the banking was slipping away in slices and endangering the property. We detailed to client what we would do to stop the slippage with gabion baskets. Our client is a great gardener and wanted something that would work with the old property. Since photos were taken the burn has been in full spate with the winter rain we get here in the west of Scotland and no further slippage! We have now installed handrails down the steps and owner has started planting in the gabions. Happy client.

Just thought you'd be interested in our garden project using your baskets.

Restoring part of the old Stowmarket Navigation

Restoring part of the old Stowmarket Navigation

The River Gipping Trust are restoring part of the old Stowmarket Navigation to make it suitable for a small electric trip boat to ply for trade between Needham Market and Baylham on the River Gipping. Our current work revolves around a location called Pipps Ford which has an abandoned lock.

Part of the restoration work requires us to excavate the bed of the original river course which was filled in by the Environment Agency back in the 80's. That will allow us to divert the water flow from the lock whilst we see what needs to be done to that structure. We have constructed a new bridge over the river and the gabions have been placed next to the brick side walls of the bridge to protect the walls from scour once the river course has been opened.

Retained Slope soakaway and water treatment plant using reclaimed concrete stone from driveway

on Monday, 27 April 2015.

Retained Slope soakaway and water treatment plant using reclaimed concrete stone from driveway

This project involved levelling a sloped garden in a clay area with poor drainage. Within this area a new water treatment plant and soakaway was put in. The owner also wanted to replace a poorly installed cracked concrete drive with gravel. The stone from the concrete drive was smashed up and used as the infill for the basket. As the baskets were not on show the entire basket could be filled with this stone. The brand of water treatment plant allowed discharge directly to a waterway so plastic soakaway crates were allowed to be used to create a new soakaway. Terram was used on top of the baskets with a wooden sleeper on the edge retain 100mm height of soil. The terram behind the basket is semi porous and ontop of the basket impervious to stop the grass drying out.

Gabions used to create an outlet into the river from waste water

Gabions used to create an outlet into the river from waste water

I used the gabions to create an outlet into the river from my waste water and surface water system in the house. The previous one had collapsed years ago and I was given the design, which you are welcome to use, by the Wyre (Lancashire) river authority as their best design for this sort of work. It is basically gabions complete with a “mattress” below surface and stacked and wired together with a concrete section in the middle to take the outlet pipe. Chris

WW1 trenches re-enactment used as teaching and learning resources

Haileybury College in Hertfordshire wished to create a "trench trail" for their students and to share with schools in the area to come and learn about the First World War. Through the Trenches for Teachers project, historian Andy Robertshaw helped bring history alive to include a reproduction trench system complete with two fire steps, a dug out and first aid post along with the supply of reproduction items and teaching pack to enable students to interpret and experience elements of the conflict and life as a British soldier.

The frame work for the structure is made using custom made gabion baskets in 3mm wire.
