This wall was built by a neighbour of mine in Ireland. I like the use of rocks. He was lucky to have a mixture of different types (from the demolition of an old house) but the use of granite and flat shale type rocks together is superb. Usually people use flat rock all sideways or all standing up. This style has begun to catch on in Ireland over the last few years and it looks superb in a 2 story building. I do not like the way he made the top of the wall but that is just a personal preference
. I have not yet seen this style in Canada. Pity!
