You probably are right Alan , I should of done that at the start. That ship has sailed I am afraid. I can't get the digger into that corner now so it would have to be done by hand, and that is beyond me to dig down that much, and I would have to cut back the ground above I think too. So rightly or wrongly that's not going to happen. The wall is not going to collapse its only holding back a small amount of ground, with good drainage behind it. Different story if it was cut into a hillside like that, it would blow out with a big rain for sure.
Now that I have rebuilt the wall , I realised I could of put a row of heavy 150mm besser blocks (that I have here doing nothing) on their side at 90degrees to the wall as footings in a row along the bottom of the wall. Would of only taken a few hours more to dig 170m down and would have nearly doubled the footprint of the wall. I could kick myself now , it seems so obvious. Oh well as they say 1 step forwards and 2 steps back.
