Description

Purbeck Random Walling can be used for drystone walls or set in mortar. Being a natural stone, the shades can vary from cream to ginger and grey. The individual pieces are random sizes as dug with a split and natural faces to add to the natural beauty of a drystone wall. Each tonne is enough to make approx 1-2 square metres of facing.

The most traditional way to build a natural stone wall is to use random walling. It is used mainly in and around the garden for boundary walls, planters, and retaining walls.

A retaining wall is faced on one side only, and is normally backed up with soil. A free-standing wall is faced on both sides, so will need twice as much stone. The stone can be laid dry or in mortar.

Finished result will depend on the skill and craftsmanship of the builder.
