Dry stone walling : materials and techniques / Nick Aitken.

Aitken, Nick, author

Ramsbury : The Crowood Press, 2023.

192 pages : illustrations ; 25 cm

A dry stone wall is more than a pile of rocks. It is a carefully built combination of specialized stones, each co-operating with the other to create something useful, strong and attractive. No mortar is used. The wall relies on friction and gravity, and the skill of the builder, to keep it together. The basic building principles are easily learned and this book provides step-by-step instructions to develop the skills to build many different types of wall and structure.
