Thanks for taking the time to look at my 32 inch pompeii build which I have 99% finished.
Firstly a bit of back story as I have no photos of the base etc.
I planned to build a pizza oven when I originally built the BBQ / fireplace and decking area but time, kids and life in general got in the way so the space for the oven was used as a coal cupboard and prep area for the BBQ until I found time to start.
I poured the base when I originally built the BBQ and the rendered walls are dense concrete blocks with raised planters behind them.
I built another concrete block wall and strapped it to the existing between the two retaining walls (pic1) as after reading the forum I was worried about the weight of the finished oven and the span between the walls. I also added a couple of concrete lintels to brace the middle wall (pic2)
I planned to make 3 brick arches to blend the BBQ and oven between the walls (pic3) and added a form to level the arch up to the lintels and external walls.
