English Garden Wall

Posted by Bob Bulmer on Tue 29th January 2008 at 06:00 AM, Filed in Brick Laying,  Construction

The English Garden Wall is usually constructed using three courses of parallel stretchers alternated with one header course (a course of bricks laid horizontally).

In order to stagger the header course you will need to lay closers (infill bricks).

This can be used for a one brick wall, but is not as stable as a flemish bond. During construction you will need to add movement joints.
