I mean no disrespect at all, David, but correct me if I'm wrong, that would be £25 per square metre (face), rather than per linear metre. Height of wall is obviously a factor.
Lynseymac, drystone walling is seriously expensive, and those few who do it are up to their eyes in work. (I should have taken that up as a career option!)
Two gardening clients of mine have had drystone walls built in recent times. One of the builders, I know, has more than enough work to keep him going until he retires. Not sure about the other, don't know who he is, but he did an excellent job.
PM me if you want me to ask my client who their waller was.
There are neither rights nor wrongs in gardening. Only experiences.
