Scottish Seabird Centre, North Berwick

Working alongside several other dry stone wallers we completed extensive works to the exterior of the Scottish Seabird Centre. We used a technique known as cladding to conceal the breezeblock walls with this attractive dry stone work.

Castle Stewart

This is a project I worked on while still an apprentice. It took several months to complete and featured a two and a half metre high boundary wall with a doorway, an arch, a decorative saltire constructed using slate and several inset seats. The garden also featured a dry stone stage and swimming pool.

Linked brochs in Heriot-Watt University grounds

A series of six dry stone brochs with turf top. These brochs were installed as an area where the students at Heriot-Watt University can go to read or study. I have also carried out extensive repointing work to the walls in the walled garden and constructed a dry stone barbeque as well as various other little jobs around the grounds.

Estate gardens

Reinstatement of dry stone walls around paved seating area with several sets of steps incorporated.

Pond with fountain and steps

This pond was constructed using breezeblocks with a liner stretched over the breezeblock and secured beneath the copes. The exterior was then carefully clad in the same stone and style as I used in the surrounding walls and steps. The lizard on the wall above the pond spills water from its mouth.
