Underground Walls

So, I am trying something new (again) and having a new house a few tiles underground. I dug a hole about 7-8 tiles until it was as deep as I wanted, and tried to place walls. It didn't work, so I tried destroying the background with my hammer. Again, it didn't work. So can I do this? If so, how?

Thank you in advance.:merchanthappy:
 
Some walls that are naturally generated can only be broken from the edges. Dig out around until you find the edge and you should be able to break it away with the hammer. This is especially common with natural dirt walls near the surface. You can then replace them with crafted walls suitable for housing.

See here for a list of all wall types. Any wall listed as "(natural)" isn't valid for housing and generally won't break unless there's an exposed edge.
