    Have about 30 meters post and rail to front of house that is starting to go a bit rotten after 20 years. Herself wants to replace it with a stone wall at a cost of about 6k, stone walls don't get me too excited TBH any ideas welcome

    Hedges ? Are you trying to keep anything in or out

    Get a new post and rail fence and revisit the problem in 20 years' time.

    6k is cheap for a 30m stone wall. Stone walls done well are really expensive in terms of skilled labour, and too often they're built in such a way that to a trained eye they look awful. I can recommend doing no research on this topic or else you risk becoming a stone wall nerd and nothing will look right.

    I was thinking of buying ready built stone pillers and composite timber rail inbetween might be a runner if I could get a good price on it.
