We are passionate about Tasmania, the country and the incredible natural wilderness values here.

That passion has become the basis for the values and ethos of Hart Drystone, to utilize local materials in creating hand-built walls, tracks and features that minimally impact and blend with their environment, are aesthetically pleasing and are enduring.

Working as a track builder in Tasmania and around Australia, Kevin found himself using drystone techniques often and came to fully appreciate the versatility and beauty of the craft.

Inspired by the history of Scottish dry stone work, dating back to the likes of Scara Brae, ancient Broch’s and field walls. Kevin has spent time working with Scotland’s current master craftsmen. He also gained his UK Dry Stone Walling Association certification in Cumbria.

Hart drystone is the product of Kevin’s combined passions for quality track building and the creation of timeless garden stonework. In both these fields, traditional skills and craftmanshipare required in order to create quality work that is lasting.
