Description
Dry stone walls, Whaw MYD36609 (c) YDNPA, 2023
A number of field walls in this area are much wider than they need to be. This is because they have been used as dumping points for stone collected up over the years as the fields were being mowed. A smooth land surface is essential if hay is to be mown efficiently.
