With decent bricks and cement, and with no side loads, it should be
fine.

Especially if he shoves in plenty of 'bow' ties.

Its different if its e.g. a retaining wall.

Many thanks. No it's not a retaining wall but I thought it should have
had
14" piers at either end to ensure stability.

Wouldnt have thought the need due to 9" blocks having sufficient
"footprint" anyhoo


These are standard bricks and I forgot to mention there is a metal gate
attached at one end. Many thanks for the info.
