I need approx. 6 railway sleepers for raised bed. How much should I expect
to pay and where is the best place to buy them?

The going rate for ex railway sleepers is around £15-20 depending on
their quality and whether they are to be delivered or collected. They
are available from garden centres, builders' merchants etc. Sometimes
they are advertised in local newspapers or Yellow Pages, or try Google.


I saw a big pile of them the other day laying in the ditch on the
northbound A1 near Grantham. So if anyone's a bit skint and can
borrow a lorry you know where to go...
