Rebuilt four metres of wall today. No mortar, no cutting — every stone has exactly one place it wants to sit and the job is just finding it. #drystone #slowhobbies

Finished the north run. Every stone found its seat eventually. #drystone

Lichen takes decades to establish and about four seconds to scrub off. Please stop pressure-washing old walls. #lichen #drystone

A wall built without mortar can move with the frost and settle back. A wall built with it cracks. There is a lesson in there and I am too tired to draw it out. #drystone
