suggestions needed

I am thinking of building 2 raised beds in the front garden so i can reach them from my chair as my pots keep getting knocked over (despite the bricks in the bottom ).....
Wood or brick, i dunno?
I am on a VERY tight budget if i decide to do it it will totally depend on cost. They would need to be 6 foot long and 2-2.5 foot wide, only three sided as existing wall could be used....

Looking for somone whos maybe done this b4 and can give me an idea of cost

ever thought about using railway sleepers?

usually more interesting and natural looking than bricks. the price
i'm not sure of though, about €20 each? i dunno what you'd pay
for the same volume you need in brick though.

best of luck with it.

Expect to spend in the order of €100/m2 for a brickie to do it in brick (cheaper if you have someone to do it).
