how long do you think a wall like this would take to build?

Its 600mm high and 12m long, double skin.

What depth would the footings have to be?

Job will be done by a brickie if i can find one.

300 deep 350 wide with 225 of concrete in them
you would be surprised how slow laying bricks freehand can be
lay 4 level then plumb
lay 3.5 level then plumb
lay 3 level then plumb
ad infinitum
cheers LLL
