If you want co-ords btw...

51 degrees, 37 minutes and 58.7 seconds North.

2 degrees, 5 minutes and 25.22 seconds West.

You'll find it just at the SW corner of a field which is itself just a short distance south west of Chedglow.

Someone owns that land though...Colin built it in 1989 and left the place, went to Scotland by the looks.

I believe it's called dry stone walling....a lot of it here in the UK.
Pretty certain Andy will be along to correct me if I'm wrong! :emb:

It does indeed look like mostly dry stone walling with the occasional bit of brickwork and mortar here and there.

Genius, for insulation or decorative effect, or do they melt over time fusing the wall together?

Awesome pics here:

Wowee! It looks enchanted. I can't get a grasp of the scale, because when you look at some of those photos it looks 'man sized' but on others, just in relation to the size of some of the grass stalks right beside the building, it looks more 'pixie sized'. Either way, it resembles an illustration from a book of fairy tales.

Yeah I agree, its cos theres not much in the background to compare for scale that you can recognise which makes it tricky.
I would say parts of it are large and other bits small such as the fancy tower bits etc.

i'm amazed everytime i see it, I can't stop looking at it, whadda guy to build that, i imagine people were telling him he's wasting his time, it's a fruitless endeavour etc, I wonder if the twonks at the council who obstructed him building it further have left as much of a legacy with their labours, or do they just have empty nights in front of the tv masterbating to babestation?
