Charity fundraising build at Long Liberty Farm, Harrogate - 10 October 2015
On a lovely October Saturday, 10 members of AXA Insurance - most of whom had never walled before - set about rebuilding 10 metres as part of a charity fundraiser for Alzheimer's Research UK. Under the watchful eye of 5 Guild wallers they made a good job with difficult stone

Going at a good pace now
Foundations starting to go in
Plenty of watchers, not many do'ers

Nice big foundation stone in there

Where has everyone gone?
Ah that explains it - lunch time
A special flypast for the Guild. The last ever flight of a Vulcan bomber nearly right over the top of us

Excitement over, back to wall building
Nice to see the Guild members bowing before the Chairman

Finally finished. Bet there will be a few aches and pains on Sunday
