Title
Memorial Mason - Stonecraft Design - Monumental Sculptor & Stonemason - Bowness on Windermere, Cumbria UK
Description
Andrew has worked in the Masonry trade since 1986, starting as an apprentice for John Dawes of Parkin & Jackson Ltd, Kendal.
John taught Andrew a wide range of traditional skills from carving ornate roses to cutting letters by hand. Andrew also attended Bath College studying monumental masonry and various carving courses - one of which was at the City & Guilds College in London.
Today at Stonecraft Design the latest technology and machinery play a large part in the working of stone, but Andrew is one of just a handful of craftsmen left in the local area who can still turn to the traditional skills when required.
