I live and work in the North York Moors area



I'm a qualified hedgelayer and have laid hedges in Ireland, Holland and in the UK. I'm also a drystone waller and have built houses (and walls), garden features, gate entrances in Ireland, Australia and in England.

I've been told I'm a bit of walling and hedgelaying nerd. But I don't mind it because it's normal. Doesn't everyone stop and take pictures of these when they are on holiday?

Some of the site contains my work along with pictures of hedges, walls and walling features from places I've visited. It should be pretty obvious which is my work.

Walls on steep & bouldery ground.



 At the head of Great Fryup in North Yorkshire a wall runs down from Mark Nab.

This is probably the steepest ground I've seen a wall on, in the National Park.  Where it reaches boulders which themselves make good barriers the wall terminates (right) or below, and seen from above the wall runs between the big boulders.



The Wall is quite steep and as you can see the stonework is in perfect condition despite what must have been very difficult ground to work on.
