Examples of some of my recently built walls

These are a few pictures of examples of some of the walls built by myself over the last couple of years, which give an indication of some of the different size's, shape's and type's of stone used and how the stone can change the mood of a wall.

A traditional double sided wall is about four and a half to five feet tall although you can have any height you want, provided you follow the basic construction rules and adopt the standard ratio of height to width. Nowadays, it is not just basic walls that can be built with dry stone techniques, garden features are increasingly being created, such as flower beds or stone seats.

Please feel free to contact me with any enquiries you might have.
