Rebuilding in lime mortar.
The rebuild below is a small section of a very old and very long wall and very high wall. Over many years roots had actually grown through the wall in many places making it unsafe.
We rebuilt the wall in lime mortar bringing it back to it's former glory.

Rebuilding part of a stone wall on the batter.
(Batter is an intentional lean)
The foundation for this rebuild was built straight onto bedrock. It is in an area of a marble quarry and the bedrock was only about 18 inches below ground level.
After the rebuild we repointed the whole wall. All work was in lime mortar.
