If you would like to try your hand at dry stone walling please contact the Wychwood Project office on 01993 814143 or email jane.bowley@oxfordshire.gov.uk. There will not be any more courses arranged in 2008 but we hope to run more in 2009. You can also contact the following organisations for more general information about dry stone walling and to see if they are running any courses locally.
There are plans in preparation to rebuild a local wall specifically with young people through the Wychwood v project in 2009 so if you are aged 16-25 and interested in trying your hand at dry stone walling keep an eye on the website or email Wychwood.v@oxfordshire.gov.uk.
