Description
A two-day course that is ideal for anyone who would like to ‘have a go’, because they either have a wall that needs rebuilding or they are considering walling as a hobby or new career option.
During the course the participants will be given the opportunity to practise all basic skills involved in stripping down and rebuilding a Dry Stone Dyke (this is the term used in Scotland to describe a mortarless wall). The tasks will be easily achieved by a person of reasonable fitness. By the end of the course they will have completely rebuilt a section of dyke and should be able to repair gaps in walls and to construct short sections of new or rebuilt dyke after adequate practice. The Course will commence at 09.00am and finish about 3.30pm each day.
