Bovine Art.

On arrival we found the cattle had transformed one of the poles into kinetic art, but had spared the wall. We finished the final course and as you will see struggled with the toppers. Many of the stones did not have the requisite depth to match the previous toppers and there were barely enough of them to finish the job. To try and make them a little less formless we started to round off the bigger stones, but despite taking a lot of care suffered breakages and so took the cowardly executive decision to not dress them and leave them as is until such time as there was enough stone to allow some risk taking.

There appears only enough stone in the remaining untouched part of the wall to rebuild up to about thigh height, so we might have to put in a cheek end and drop the level.
