You must be pretty desperate to pinch a gate fastener

How many tons was removed ?
how was the mound constructed?
We didnt get involved in the dismantling but it was a 25m high scaffold core on pads and the center base with a stone carpet and paving, exterior was sedum .we are just down for decompacting and sorting out the existing soil and turfing the areas .Started turfing today ( only first part) with 2 of us putting 18 pallets of turf before midday ,the sprinklers will make it a whole lot fresher looking by the end of the day

whats the reason for cutting that now ?
It's a patch of ground that I've got (10 acres) on the edge of Hfd . I've given up putting livestock here cos of the kids and dogs .
I decided to mow it off and early next week lightly rotovate it and re-seed it . Its pretty crap grass so hopefully end up with something better

Baling it now

How do you remember which is which?

Do you have good/bad/average piles?
