  • Background

    Alongside my building and restoration work, I also teach dry stone walling. I ran a two-day course for Northumberland National Park, working with two groups of eight, and it's an area of work I'd like to grow. Whether you're looking for a one-to-one introduction or a small group session, I'm happy to talk through what might work for you.

  • What You'll Learn

    Sessions cover the basics of dry stone walling: how to take down a wall safely and efficiently, and how to select and place the right stones to build a wall with real structural integrity.

  • Formats Available

    Courses can be tailored to suit you, whether that's a one-to-one session, a small group, or a different format entirely. Get in touch to discuss what you're looking for.
