project. father, daughter lock down learning 

date. Summer 2020

location.  Bamford in Rochdale, Lancashire 

specification. At this charming mansion, the overgrown laurel hedge and trees on the garden had caused the boundary dry stone wall to collapse.   

​

Ruby my fourteen year old daughter, at home during lock down joined me (for extra pocket money) to rebuild the 1.6m high 8m long gap. 

 

Ruby is many things, academically gifted, kind, generous, socially vibrant and passionate about being creative. I’m not sure she will follow in my footsteps but for these few days I was pleased to see her proud of her own hard work.
