DRY STONE WALLING TRAINING COURSES

QUALIFICATION & INTENSIVE DRY STONE WALLING COURSES

If you are looking to learn the heritage craft of dry stone walling or pursue a career in walling then we have a course to suit you.

Our 4-day training courses are designed for those who want an intensive introduction to the fundamentals of dry stone walling or to hone their existing skills. Participants learn essential techniques and gain hands-on experience under the guidance of a Master Craftsman Instructor. These courses are ideal for anyone wishing to develop skills for personal projects or to improve their craftsmanship without working toward a formal qualification.

Our Qualification Courses follow a similar structure to the 4-day training courses, but have a stronger focus on refinement and assessment preparation. Throughout the week, participants work step-by-step through the process of building a wall, with particular emphasis on structure, technique, and walling speed to meet the standards required for the internationally recognised Lantra Level 1 or Level 2 qualification.

All courses run Monday through to Thursday and are £400.

For those booking a Qualification course, assessments must be booked on the DSWA website prior to the course running.

DISCLAIMER: This course is physically demanding. By booking, participants acknowledge that a reasonable level of physical fitness and overall health are necessary to safely and successfully complete the duration of the course. It is strongly advised that those booking this course have undertaken some dry stone walling before such as a Beginners Course.
