We recently had visitors from overseas who were in awe of the many different styles and stones used in dry stone walling across England. I suppose the variety of dry stone walling can be saved for a future post, but it is the use of the dry stone walls that create an often unique landscape in England.
Our guests were curious of the volume, shape and small scale size of the enclosures of our fields. It can be seen best from 400ft in the air - and hence the purpose of this post:
