The History and Craft of Dry Stone Walls. An insight into the history, craft and splendour of dry stone walling. Dry stone wall near Askrigg, Yorkshire Dales. My earliest memory of dry stone walls comes from when I was about 8 years old, when on holiday in the Yorkshire Dales I found a baby shrew sat on a stone protruding out of one of the dry stone walls near to where we were having a picnic. I was told by my mother that it probably lived in the wall, and I was puzzled and transfixed as to how an animal could actually live in the middle of a wall. It wasnt just shrews either, I learned that field mice, voles, stoats, hedgehogs, bats, toads and slow worms all made their homes amidst the wall, and hares will scrape a hollow at the base of a wall where it will remain sheltered from the worst of the elements. Many birds too, such as the robin, wheatear and redstart, and the occasional small owl, have been known to occupy larger gaps, with mosses, lichens and ferns favouring the outside of the walls. I vaguely recollect asking my mother lots of other related questions, such as how the walls managed to stand up what with all the gaps in them, where all the stone came from to build them, who built them, and why they were built in the first place. The fact they were built a long, long time ago, and the animals and plants made the wall their home, or used them as hiding places from predators, was about all I remember from my early questions. Brown hare on dry stone wall, Peak District. Image courtesy of Benjamin Andrews via Flickr. A thing of beauty. We returned to the same spot in the Yorkshire Dales each year for the following ten years with my family, and Ive been returning to the same area every year since with my girlfriend, who became my wife, and our children. Each year Ive been back, Ive learned a little bit more about dry stone walls, and appreciate their beauty more and more. So much so that I went on a couple of dry stone walling courses to learn how to make them myself. Its difficult to explain to someone who hasnt been to an area such as the Yorkshire Dales just how beautiful dry stone walls are, and how much they are intrinsically part of the fabric of the landscape of the area, particularly where the stone used reflects the underlying geology, and the same colour and texture of stone, and vernacular style, that is used for wall building is used to build other structures in the landscape, such as field barns. Anyone who can remember watching the TV series All Creatures Great and Small in the 1. Yorkshire Dales to appreciate the beauty. Upper Swaledale, Yorkshire Dales. I dont think Im alone either in appreciating their beauty either. The beauty, improvisation and simplicity of building a structure made from locally available stone, and nothing else, by arranging the stones in a particular pattern so that they lock themselves together to create a solid structure that can last for hundreds of years, is shared by many certainly judging by the amount of Royal Horticultural Society medals that have been won in show gardens recently where dry stone walling has been a key feature.

They are extremely eco friendly as well, leaving no carbon footprint as cement isnt required, and the flora and fauna appreciate them enormously, providing a valuable habitat for a wide range of wild plants and creatures, and are effectively one huge linear nature reserve. Where they are found. Id always thought that dry stone walls were a peculiarly British and Irish phenomenon, but thats not the case and anyone who has watched the film The. Shawshank Redemption will know that as well. Andy played by Tim Robbins hides a stash of cash and set of instructions inside a tin hidden within an abandoned rock wall the American term for a dry stone wall besides a huge oak tree ready for Red played by Morgan Freeman to find on release from prison. The location for the scene was meant to be in New England, an area famous for its rock walls it was estimated that by the 1. New England and New York had over 2. Mansfield, Ohio, but sadly the wall has gone now apparently, thanks to souvenir hunters who have taken it apart and sold the stones on e. Bay.   Dry stone walls are also found throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, and parts of Kentucky the Bluegrass Region and California Napa Valley. Dry stone walls arent just limited to the British Isles and USA either theyre actually found throughout the world and span a variety of civilisations dry stone walls can be found in Canada, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany Spain, Italy, Canary Islands, Croatia, Czech Republic, Zimbabwe the ruined city of Great Zimbabwe was predominantly made from dry stone, Australia and New Zealand due to more recent migration from the British Isles, Belize and Peru the Inca built Machu Picchu using dry stone construction. Dry stone is very popular within high frequency earthquake regions because the walls are very flexible not having solid concrete joints, and they are constructed of two rows of walls that incline towards each other the angle or gradient of the walls is known as the batter, so when the ground shakes, the stones move inwards towards each other, not outwards towards people Machu Picchu, Peru.

In Britain, dry stone walling is usually found in rocky Highland or Upland areas such as the Pennines, the Lake District, the North East, the Peak District and throughout most of Wales and Scotland and parts of South West England Cornwall and Devon mainly. An exception to this is the lowland Cotswolds although a few hills do attain to 1,0. Parliamentary Enclosures in the middle of the 1. Centuries, a period that saw the Cotswolds being the centre of the woollen industry in England, made possible by the availability of stone found under the thin soil across the Cotswold landscape the subsoil rock is extremely accessible being only a few inches deep in many places which provides both a strong base on which to build the walls and makes stone extraction easy, as the stone breaks down with ease into flat rectangle shapes, perfect for shaping into a wall and also fracturing into roofing slates. Cotswolds wall, Gloucestershire. Cotswold masons have perfected the artistry of gentle 3 or 4 ft walls, often single skinned one wall, instead of two adequate for their genteel Cotswold sheep totally impractical for the rough Pennine environment of wind, rain, frost and snow and the tough Blackface sheep that require 6 ft high walls of considerable thickness due to their sharp wit for spotting a gap, and considerable strength. Sheepcote village, Gloucestershire. History of walling. Dry stone walling is an ancient craft that goes back thousands of years since the Neolithic period. Evidence of dry stone wall and house construction at Skara Brae on Orkney has been radiocarbon dated back to c. BC, amazingly preserved as it was buried by sand dunes until the farmstead was discovered in 1. Newgrange burial mound in Ireland has been dated to the same period. Its even been thought that an earlier farmstead on Orkney, the Knap of Howar, may actually date from 3. BC, although the radiocarbon dating isnt precise. What we do know is that dry stone walling is a technique thats been around over 5,0. Skara Brae Neolithic village, Orkney.
