I know what a sheep dip is, how and why did you pave one of them?

maybe its a posh sheep dip?
i would have thought they had to be water tight with all the bad publicity about organo phosphates?

That is a Yew or a conifer of some strain, can't see it ever being a cordyline
having studied this after zooming in, i would now correct myself and say conifer, but not yew.
thanks Mark!
but in anycase, it needs too come out!

Just got in ....! the sheep dip isn't a dip but a historical remake for washing the wool prior to sheering when wool was a valuable commodity years ago and using a natural spring which will be coming out of the wall the shape helps the shepherds as the sheep will just keep going arround because they are to thick to get out up the ramp!
What the two are doing to the sheep in the illustration is anyone guess but she is a looker!
