The Wall arises

Sue has finally made it to the end of the wall! One of the big problems was in finding the right shape and size stones, which is a bit ironic as we have stones everywhere in the garden, in the barn, in the ruin, in the hedges; in fact we can find stones everywhere, but finding the right stones....! We ended up cutting some of the stones with a disc cutter to get some sense of uniformity.

We are very pleased with the wall, or at least we will be when it is finished. All we have to do is point up the joints between the stones with mortar to match the house, then fill behind the wall with soil so that we can then start planting. Simple isn't it?
