Scottish master craftsman looks around at other wallers work to generate world wide interest in the ancient art of gathering rocks into field boundaries and beautiful features in stone.

World Heritage Site




I have had the wonderful opportunity of working alongside Swiss wallers on this dry stone project at Belalp in Switzerland. The compound is still used to gather and sort sheep and goats in the high alps above 2000 metres . Many sections are in need of repair. Around 20 years ago major work was carried out using mortar, many of these sections are now requiring attention .The local and national authorities wish the work to be carried out using the traditional methods with dry stone.

During the time spent there I found several stone related features which will appear in future blog entries.

I'm really loving the theme/design of your website. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A handful of my blog visitors have complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any tips to help fix this problem?

Superb blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers?
I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or
go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I'm totally confused .. Any suggestions? Bless you!
