Learn the Basic Skills of Dry Stone Walling Course(s)

After the successes of our previous weekend courses, we are pleased to announce three more early Summer weekend course dates for our 'Basic Skills Programme'.

The basic skills you will learn and master with confidence during these weekend non-residential courses, will enable you to rebuild a broken down wall; construct a new wall from scratch; or adapt the skills learnt to suit many a garden project. We hope that you will enjoy the course, as others have done before you and come to appreciate the aesthetic qualities of stone as a long lasting monument to your newly honed skills.

Courses will be run in the heart of the beautiful Co Roscommon countryside, away from the hustle and bustle of city life and begin with a necessary safety instruction, before continuing with the hands on experience. As might be expected, manual labour activity can be strenuous, lifting heavy stones exhausting, but the pleasure derived from seeing your own 'construction' building in front of your eyes is well worth the effort. 
(Please note that you will never be asked to overexert yourself. Also, as the course is held outdoors, please dress appropriately for the Irish weather!) 

Course Dates:
Saturday 10th to Sunday 11th May, 2014.

Saturday 7th to Sunday 8th June, 2014.

Saturday 5th to Sunday 6th July, 2014

All courses begin daily at 9.30am, lunch is supplied.
Maximum number of course participants is six (6)
Cost is €60 per person for one day or €100 for the weekend.
Group discounts apply, please ask for more information.
