very nice looking job Mr.Cook

i like the fact that when your done the rest of the house/garden looks reasonably intact
Its horrible when you see a nice job on a drive but the garden is laid to waste

That looks tip top. This is purely a question and not a criticism, whatâ€™s the reason the inset manhole cover was not installed parallel with the paving?

how long did it take you to point the drive ?

I'm not speaking for cooky,but from personal experience i have found that old brick man holes tend to be parallel to the main run ,which is mostly not in like with the house
so without a lot of corbelling the cover can only go 1 way
unless you are Monsieur g'ammage and you get 1 specially made :;):
Is that indian stone that is coursed ?
