we have done some work on retaining walls , we drive steel posts into the base of the bank edge below the water line ( 2m) and then drop sectional walling in that sits on the posts ( sections made from heavy box section and timber ) once all in place retaining pins go through the box section into the river bank ( 4-6m depending on wall height/water depth ) for us it means we can fabricate everything off site and arrive and install sections very quickly with everything easily made on farm
I expect the house of lords forum regular discuss the issueis TFF the only forum ever to have a thread about Moat issues ?

Thought that was in Holyhead on a Sat night, after too much Brain's Best these days...???
Slightly different, but in teh same vein...
As part of the house renovation project, I had a 13t 360 did out a pond and drag the spoil onto a nearby bank. I settled on Stakes pushed in, then timber between the stakes allowed the land to dry out and stabilise.
I was approached by a laday with a property next to a main stream, who was seeing serious erosion problems getting close to the property. Council and EA both refused any liability or ownership of the problem, and I was approached to pop over informally to see if teh PC could lobby on their behalf (it couldn't).
My suggestion was 6" treated drivers knocked in to the brook bed tight on the inside of the bends of the bank, or old motorway barrier. (tight budget here...) In the end, they had someone drive fence stakes in which have held for several years now.... However, they probably did the best thing.... sold up and moved!

I have to inform the forum that blue vegetable dye (other colours are available) can be difficult to remove from the wrinkles.
