Site preparation
Clear and set out the service path and the clothesline working circle while keeping the house and boundary fences.

Path base and ground sleeve
Compact the path and drying-pocket bases and secure the pole sleeve in a small footing; leave planting soil open.

Path, screen and pole
Lay the limestone path and gravel, build the low timber screen and fix the clothesline pole before planting.

Groundcover planting
Plant young thyme, sedum and low border plants outside the working circle, keeping the service path clear.

Ready for everyday drying
Clean the surfaces, open the rotary arms and hang a small amount of light laundry clear of the screen and plants.
