ABOUT

Hi there, I'm Gary!
I specialise in Bespoke Landscaping & Stonework.

EARTH, STONE & MORTAR FOUNDER

I founded Earth, Stone & Mortar in 2019 after more than 25 years working in the landscaping industry, with a lifelong passion for natural stone that began on our family farm, where I learnt the traditional craft of dry stone walling.

​

Over the years, I've worked on everything from heritage stonework and bespoke landscapes to award-winning gardens, RHS Tatton Park Flower Show projects and television productions.

 

Every experience has reinforced my belief that exceptional stonework is built on skill, patience and attention to detail.

​

In 2026, Earth, Stone & Mortar became a limited company, marking the next chapter in our journey while remaining true to the craftsmanship and values the business was founded on.
