The Yorkshire Stone Dresser

Apologies I haven’t replied to comments.

Spent the weekend exploring the stunning landscapes of North Wales with the family — a place steeped in stonework, history, and tradition. From ancient castles standing proud against the hills to centuries-old walls shaped by generations of skilled hands, it’s a true showcase of craftsmanship and heritage.

As a stone dresser, I can’t help but see the stories written in every block and joint — the artistry, patience, and pride that went into creating them. It’s a reminder of why I love what I do and how much there is to learn from the past.

I’d love to travel more, capturing the beauty of stonework and sharing it through my own eyes & bring you guys along with the family for the journey.

The winter months are coming in and I just wanna thank all your new subscribers who are just tuning into the channel.

Since my dad passed, I really enjoyed getting back onto the content and all you people are helping me push through with the hard times coming.

I’m not here trying to sell you anything. I’m just a hard-working Yorkshire lad earning a living.

Over the next couple of months, I’ll be talking in more in debt about the Stone industry about myself and why I dress Stone and do what I do so if you can do drop us a follow share it to your friends and let’s get more people appreciate in traditional old school bands and what’s also forgotten most in this country is hard work

Goodbye big lad ❤️ RIP Dad

Hello everyone I thought I would explain my absence recently. My father passed away unexpectedly, he was a good man with an incredible work ethic that he instilled into me and I his words long live in my head “you only get out what you put in”

I have found it very difficult to put the time required into YouTube as well as working, family time, looking after my mum and keeping my other socials going. However my mum sits and watches every YouTube video I upload numerous times because she doesn’t no how to work any other social media 😂 so these next few months are for you mum.

I appreciate all your support, comments & likes. If I don’t get back to the comments I don’t mean to be rude, it’s just very difficult to manage everything sometimes.

Let’s get back to bashing and show that old school is still cool.
