Default Box hedging advice (again)

Can anyone tell me how far away from the border of my garden to the pavement

I want the hedge to be about 3 feet tall but I don't want it to encroach on
to the pavement too much.

At this height how wide should my hedge be to be stable?


I've seen many lowish box hedges about as thick through as they
were tall. This implies that you put your plants about 18" back
from the pavement.
