Default Building a wall

I think you need to talk to Building Control. They are presumably going
to want to see standard footings and buttresses (for single skin).

Not if it is timber framed which it might as well be - you need 4" of
celotex to meet regs and 4" or 6" of timber will provide enough strength
for the brickwork.

Hard to make a fair job of the brick outside face when its rammed
against a fence tho

€œit should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism
(or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans,
about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and
the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a
'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,'
a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for
rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet
things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that
you live neither in Joseph Stalins Communist era, nor in the Orwellian
utopia of 1984.€
