Yer tiz a video I've posted before, but just putting it out there, we can split and dress quoins onsite to save anyone time and it works out cheaper than buying them in.
Can also split big stone into gateposts , and dress all seen edges too so there is a nice arris👌

Well yer tiz, a few different types of Devon stone faced banks, showing the differences in stone and styles.
There are a few different ways to build using the different stone types, and all the wallers I know have different variations, I'm hoping to go through a few in some upcoming videos, and I will be showcasing Devon spades too😁.
Last pic is the legend himself Jack Connabeer teaching on a course👌

I'm going to put out a few of these videos showcasing the variation in Devon stone faced banks, there are a lot of different and conflicting ideas and methods to build these, and each one is different so will take a different approach.
The one thing that is absolute whichever way we build is the footings and infill/ backfill need to be right.
Level or back tilted footings on a solid base preferably into god hard ground, and whatever backfill needs to be well compacted.

Quick visit to great little local quarry, great guy to deal with
