The remit for this project was to turn a very steep (approx 10m high) hillside garden into low maintenance gravel filled terraces  including a veg patch and large open area containing a formal feature pond, with access using steps and paths to reach each area. One side of the garden was completely terraced at 1m […]

This project included a few different stages, the dry stone walling consisted of around 200m of wall around the perimeter of the property and a large retaining wall which became a parapet wall towards the top. Notable features of the walls include through stones that were cut to the width of the wall (none protruding) […]

A small selection of the many dry stone walls constructed in the last 10 years by our team. There are great variations in the different types of stone and therefore the style in which it is walled; the smaller more uniform sandstones can be more easily ‘coursed’ and joints made tighter.

A selection of the many mortared masonry projects carried out by the team in the last 10 years. our team has had specialist training in the the use of, and different applications for, lime mortar. This knowledge has mostly been used to repair pre 1900 buildings and walls. (please click images).    

We like to work with each client through every stage of the project from initial design ideas through to  finalising heights and adding features. Using our experience and expertise we can help you realise your dream garden.

We also lay paths, patios and cobbles. Whether it is re-laying an old Yorkshire sandstone path or a brand new Indian flagged terrace, we are more than capable of fulfilling your every need. (please click images)

We attend many shows throughout the Summer to demonstrate the craft and skills involved in building dry stone features to the general public. All of these show pieces were built in one day, by 2 to 4 members of the team. (please click images)
