Nice work, looks as if it’s been that way for a 100 years. In the states, specifically Dummerston Vermont the “Stone Trust”has work shops that teach how build dry stone walls. In New England stone walls were part of the fabric of this area when it was originally settled and farmed, unfortunately many of these original walls have disappeared as the farmland has been replaced by subdivisions. It’s nice to see this trade being revitalized. Keep up the good work. Rock on 🤘🪨

I learnt my walling at Otley DSWA with nice regular stone, have been working on the Yorkshire Dales National Park walling team for the last 2 years on walls like this, completely different. These dales walls really teach you how to wall. Good video Lads.

This is my favorite type of stone walling-- love your channel. We're starting in on a dry-stacked foundation this week for our historic cabin rebuild in Montana, USA. Thanks for the inspiration!

Nice work. This is exactly like the random, weathered fieldstone walls which dot the Virginia countryside.

How much do you charge for a job like this? Trying to learn how to price jobs better

Very difficult to get good money for field walling. The only way people tend to make any money is by sacrificing quality where they can. This particular job was done on hourly rate so it wasn't as much of an issue. I've just priced a field wall at £60/running meter which is about as low as i would ever go. It means i have to average 3.5m a day on small stone to make a wage. Field walling is a situation where you are able to build at a decent speed and most other jobs won't be as fast so anything else I would start at £100/m and then extra for any labouring, taking muck away etc. Price as high as you dare and it will allow you to do a good job. I have priced some jobs as high as £400/m when every aspect is worst case scenario: complicated/tall/bad stone/bad access/new quarried stone etc.
