About the event
Yorkshire’s dry stone walls are an important and iconic part of our heritage. They also provide vital homes for wildlife and form robust boundaries for our livestock. Sadly, many of our dry stone walls are falling into disrepair as the traditional skills needed to maintain them are being lost. Join us on this event to learn more about this ancient craft and have a go at adding ‘another stone in the wall’ to restore a broken-down section.
