This 'lunky hole' or 'sheep hole' is designed to allow smaller animals to pass through walls while still restricting access generally. While designed for moving smaller livestock, there also great for allowing wildlife to move around freely. Here we dismantled a section of the existing wall and then built in the whole.
Monyash, Bakewell, Derbyshire
In this case, we carefully repaired a small curved dry stone wall after it was damaged by a G-wagon collision at Monyash, Bakewell, Derbyshire. Using skilled craftsmanship and attention to detail, we restored the wall's original form and strength, matching stonework precisely to ensure a high-quality finish that blends seamlessly and remains durable and structurally sound.
Youlgrave, Bakewell, Derbyshire
Here we built an imposing 11 foot tall carboniferous limestone retaining wall at Youlgrave, Bakewell, Derbyshire, using massive stones, some weighing in excess of 200kg. It is built to the highest structural standards, with diligently crossed joints and multiple layers of through stones. This was an emergency due to it being on the side of a steep bank.
We constructed a traditional dry stone wall with a rustic, timeless character, carefully selecting and placing each stone by hand. The new wall is securely tied into the original walls on both sides, ensuring structural continuity, strength, and a seamless, natural appearance that blends perfectly with its surroundings and heritage. This is the perimeter wall for a countryside caravan retreat.
Hartington, Buxton, Derbyshire
We were commissioned to design and construct a dry stone effect wall in the picturesque village of Hartington, Buxton, Derbyshire for a repeat customer, the requests made were for the wall to be neat, professional and while blending in with the landscape around it. Each stone was thoughtfully placed for natural beauty, while hidden internal structural supports were used to ensure longevity.
