I've gone a different route with my pier - used a plate and micropiles, and it's worked a treat. Very stable, and I've been able to move the pier by myself to a better location in the yard, leaving behind no trace.

I cut down the micro-piles to about 700mm in length, and it's very stable

Hi Stephen,
Thanks for that. I had seen a post about this (possibly yours). This looks very interesting but I might run into the same problem as with a concrete footing, i.e. shallow soil. I'm not sure I'd have 700mm of soil to drive into before I hit sandstone.
