Travel along the west coast of Ireland and take note of the Variety natural stone walls that have existed for generations. The variey is a result of differnces in stone, craftmanship and rural culture. It is the responsibility of the stonemason to design his work to complement the existing environment. Nowadays this responsibility is echoed in the Planning Authority regulations. A stone wall gives the property a natural border that will survive the tests of the irish weather and increase the value of the property as a whole.
