Hedgelaying, Planting, Drystone Walling, Garden features, House stonework, hedgelaying, teaching, illustrated talks, Training in Hedgelaying, Stonework, Drystone Walling

I live and work in the North York Moors area



I'm a qualified hedgelayer and have laid hedges in Ireland, Holland and in the UK. I'm also a drystone waller and have built houses (and walls), garden features, gate entrances in Ireland, Australia and in England.

I've been told I'm a bit of walling and hedgelaying nerd. But I don't mind it because it's normal. Doesn't everyone stop and take pictures of these when they are on holiday?

Some of the site contains my work along with pictures of hedges, walls and walling features from places I've visited. It should be pretty obvious which is my work.

Abbey Farm Big stones




Abbey Farm, Whitby.  Built of rather large blocks of stone and quite different from all the other walls on the farm.

Dismantling it.  Its not a long section.  From the two new fence posts in the middle to the one laid next to the gagte in the distance.

Some heavy lifting here.  I spent a fair bit of time  measuring and making sure the ones I was going to use weren't likely to be lifted off again.  These were some of the heaviest stones I've used.  I think Paul, the owner, helped lift one or two.
