On taking over my current plot, I inherited dismantled kitchen units and most of the plexiglass panes from a telephone box. This was stuff more or less above ground.

Six inches under the couch grass was a 10' x 10' grey nylon carpet, so embedded with roots I had to cut it out in sections.

Well.... congratulations on the unearthing.

I think I would have had to do the same out of curiosity if nothing else. I am not so sure a skip would have been provided as our site was not council run but a local association.

Just think of the level of satisfaction once the space is cleared, recovered and back in use.
Happy plotting.

Yes  , agree with that , some ' then and now'  photos will remind you when you harvest your crops.

Hi, yes it had to come up,and to be fair on first unearthing it was 50/50 WTF am i gonna do now/mmm...thats interesting.Sadly the soil in this area would take eons to clean enough to gow veg...but it will grow flowers and i`ve just ordered enough liner for a 5x3x2 wildlife pond.As for the rubble,my local council is cash strapped(like many others) so dont think i`ll get a skip...but do need a boundry fence so currently looking at Gabion baskets on the cheap.Going down tommorrow,so if i think on,I`ll post a few pics.

A wild-life pond sounds good as does the idea of using the rubble as a boundary... if you can keep the weeds out from under it.

I bought a preformed fibre-glass pond intending to set it up not too far from my veg plots at home. The "pond" has turned into a 10 foot square, 4 foot deep, raised kio carp pond.... so I still need a spot for my little wild-life pond. worth having I think.

Here's wishing you the best of luck with your plans. (Nice to have the enthusiasm.... I'm trying to recover mine).
