The Arch Installation was held on July 17th in Mount Pleasant, 25 minutes north of Port Hope Ontario. A team of seven wallers erected, over the course of the day, a dry stone arch situated on a pile of stones picked from a farmer's field well over a hundred years ago. Perched almost on the crest of a large hill, it is visible from the surrounding countryside; standing as a silent testament to our days labor. A special thank you to those who came supporting the DSWAC cause, braving the heat and the steep climb. It was a real team effort with a great crew. John Shaw-Rimmington's vision for dry stone features has brought to reality a splendid dry stone arch for all to enjoy.
