Probably 2 feet from the bricks


Just box it in. Get some 3/4 plywood for your plate. Horizontal 2x6 from the existing framework. Put a diagonal 2x4 to support from the bottom.

Lead anchors with lag bolts (in the mortar joints) , or toggle bolts (in the mortar joints)

Having access to the back you could literally drill a hole through and use a bolt with a large fender washer and a nylock nut on the back side.

Ok, this is what I came up with as a solution. I'm going to try to get this done this weekend. I'll update this thread afterward with photos. I hope it doesn't end in a spectacular failure.

Don't hate on my Microsoft Paint (RIP) skills.
