"O the old wall here! How I could pass
Life in a long midsummer day,
My feet confined to a plot of grass,
My eyes from a wall not once away!"
~ Robert Browning

If I am going to be immured, I’d like a drystone wall – then I can think about the craftsman’s skill piecing it together … and the lichen and plants claiming their space.

yes nothing to hold it together other than gravity and plants – though often these are removed to help ‘air’ the wall
