Description
Rustic and charming or stately and proud, a well-built stone wall can add personality and beauty to your property. John Vivian's lively approach and step-by-step instructions encourage you to transform a pile of rocks into an enduring landscape feature with gates, retaining walls, or stiles to suit your needs. Whatever unique challenges come with your site ? poor drainage, sloping ground, or low-quality rubble material ? Vivian offers innovative designs and reproducible methods to help you build a beautiful, long-lasting wall.
