JULY 2014 WORKSHOP UPDATE

Due to the Met Eireann forecast of wet & windy weather for the weekend of 5th & 6th July, 2014, it has been decided, due to the possible health & safety risks to those participating in the weekend workshop, to postpone the workshop until the following weekend, ie 12th & 13th July, 2014.

There is still time to book your place on the course.

Call Andy on 087-4112991 now for more details.

Learn the Fundamental Skills of Traditional Dry Stone Walling Course 

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 course’s, 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 12^th to Sunday 13^th July, 2014

*All courses begin daily at 9.30am, lunch is supplied.

*Maximum number of course participants is ten (10).
