Rolling the new surface

A couple of days ago I asked "how many layers do they have to dig before the path can be relaid correctly?", and the answer seems to be: about half a one.

This morning some new surface material was ferried in by wheelbarrow. Then it was spread — upper photo on the left — and rolled — lower photo.

Apparently one of the problems with the original construction was that what I call the 'hover-roller' (apparently it's slightly more proper name is 'whacker') was used for the rolling, and it shouldn't be — though I noticed it was still on site today.
