Burmieston Members’ Event

 

Two days of wibbley, wobbley wall together with intermittent wet and steaminess, sums up our time at Burmieston. Supervised by Gregor we took down and widened a gap leading to a parking area. This involved two cheek ends and a rebuild of two to three metres. Once we’d finished this, we continued, on Day 2, to work on the repair begun last year. This meant another cheek end as well as taking down quite a lot of unpinned rubble and tracey wall, producing, I hope, a robust rebuild. Six members attended over the course of the two days.

Walling as a hobby came a bit late and I think I am too little (5ft 2 ins), but I love it for the combination of a practical task in great locations, which is creative, inventive and shared with similar enthusiasts, both amateur and professional.
