Garden - digging round a septic tank.
I have a septic tank . Its a brick built two chamber type built about
1958. Currently the area around it ( drainage field?) is covered in grass. I am tired of grass and fed up of mowing all the time. Its a good long stretch of ground to the right of the house and runs for a good 200 feet before hitting the back section which is overgrown and I cant seem to do anything with at all. ( was greenhouses but they were dismantled long ago) and would be ideal as a garden area to be honest. Is there any reason I cannot take off the grass and dig this area up to put in a garden? Would I disturb the drains or something? The other side of the garden has a lot of trees and bushes in and a couple of greenhouses and a summerhouse so its not possible to put in more garden there without taking down these items. The back is overgrown with a hedge and there isn't much I can do with that at all except gravel it and keep it tidy. |
