I.m having a moan!

[Palustris]

I have just altered the shape of one of our lawns (Hah!, should be called non-gardened area) to make turning the mower a little easier. It has left a piece of land only about a metre wide and say 3 metres long. So far I have removed 2 x 2 gallon buckets of scrap metal, crockery, glass, slate etc. and 2 wheelbarrows full of broken bricks. The 'soil' itself is best described as subsoil, certainly not good quality topsoil. The annoying thing is that if one digs down through this rubbish, about 2 feet down, you come to really good top soil.
At sometime some philistine (I can think of a better word, but the censor won't let it through) has dumped wagon loads of rubbish on this part of the garden for some reason or other. It makes my blood boil.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

And we are not talking of a small area either, it extends to about a third of the garden, so it must have been a fair number of loads! Deliberate vandalism or sheer ignorant stupidity.

Eric,  I remember a couple years ago you came on some amount of horrendous rubbish in your garden.  What was your garden like when you took over the property.  Was it the local Skip?  You have had some great finds as well though.  Good luck in clearing it away and putting in some top soil.  You may find something worth having as you dig stuff up.
