Outdoor loo

The kids use it all the time, I'm amazed at how stuff breaks down so quickly in the hole under it. It's never smelt and we've not moved it since we bought the land.
We could do with some walls around it now though as the neighbours have pruned their trees next door and it's not as private.

Cool! Here, you would need a roof and a woodburner though...you could make some walls out of some straw bales to spare your neighbours blushes, maybe?

What a good idea, I think we'll have to do that!

u could plant willow round the sides and back. Do 2 rows planted 6 inches apart, plant each cutting three inches apart. First year youll have quite a screen. Second year it will be tall enough to weave awigwam type roof. Willow will literally help eat the contents. Called a treebog.

Planting russian comfrey just beyond the willow to take up the nitrogen is good to.
