The Dummerston Town Livestock Pound is Complete!

Over a period of ten months, with three weekend workshops and three practice days, the Dummerston Town Pound became a reality. Forty-four volunteers traveled from near and far to be part of the re-creation and to hone their dry stone walling skills.

Stone Workshop - Dummerston VT

Discounting the pesky black flies, weather and working conditions were ideal for the Dummerston town pound walling weekend. Sixteen participants under the direction of myself, Andrew Pighills and Jared Flynn created forty foot of four foot high fence wall, a corner and a cheekend. The pound is now enclosed on nearly three sides. The gate opening makes a fine entrance to the interior space. Thanks to all who worked so carefully and well laying stone.
