A field and documentary survey of drystone walls in Asby parish was undertaken in 2022 as a community project under the Westmorland Dales Landscape Partnership scheme. Nearly 40 walls were surveyed and interpreted, and a typology of wall development was compiled based on detailed wall characteristics. The methods and rationale are explained in the book and the results and typology are compared with other walls in Westmorland and North Craven. Five broad wall types have been
recognised.
