Wow...looks incredible. A visual feast. The wheels are turning now; Lots of 'leftovers' kicking around the 'yard' and spring is just around the corner...
We swept sand into the joints after these photos were taken. This made it look a bit less dramatic. I think dark black sand would have kept the stone pattern contours better.
I am a person who builds dry stone walls and bridges and thinks a lot about how to get other people discovering what a satisfying occupation it can be. I am founder and president of Dry Stone Walling Across Canada www.dswa.ca and an avid supporter of the idea of sharing knowledge freely and learning from others.
That's a lovely piece of work. Dodgy band though :-)

ReplyDeleteP.S. is there any need to sweep anything into the joints? or will you just let nature and 'dirt' take its course?

ReplyDeleteFlye, if you build this in your back yard, I will come over and have a beer on it.
ReplyDeleteAbbey Road comes to mind.
