A big thank you to Steph O'Hara for this amazing photo of my spider sculpture at Kingston Lacy. You can really get a true sense of scale in this picture. If you've seen the spider at Kingston Lacy send me your pics!

Before and after of 'The Daddy Long Legs' in the Woodland Trail play area at Kingston Lacy NT.

A before and after shot of the spider (now reinvented as a daddy long legs) in the woodland play area on the Woodland Trail at Kingston Lacy. It’s the perfect day for an outdoor adventure so why not come and explore?

Thank you to the The Dorset Woodsman for working his magic once again. Find out more about Shaun and his work on the estate at Kingston Lacy here: https://bit.ly/2zBTrNl

Another fun day at the Kingston Lacy green woodworking demonstration. It's been great meeting so many people who are interested in learning traditional skills and having a go themselves. I'm here from 10am until 4pm every day until Sunday. So if you haven't had a chance to make it yet, come along and bring the family and have a fun day out.

We're having so much fun here at Kingston Lacy. I've had so many visitors to the demonstration area in the Kingston Lacy grounds where mums, dads and kids are all having a go at creating their own dragonflies and gypsy flowers. A big THANK YOU to everyone who has come to learn more about traditional woodcrafts. If you haven't visited yet, I'm here for the whole of the half term holidays until Sunday 28th.

Great start to the week at Kingston Lacy! It was a fun day showing lots of people how to make their own willow dragonflies and hazel gypsy flowers. To see hurdle making demonstrations and to make your own flower or dragonfly, visit me at Kingston Lacy tomorrow and every day this week until Sunday 28th.

Looking forward to the first day of hurdle making demonstrations today at Kingston Lacy, near Wimborne. I'll be here for the next 9 days over the half term holiday showing you how to make dragonflies, gypsy flowers and hurdle making. Why not come down and join me and give it a go yourself! Hope to see you here.

My website has been updated ready for spring 2016. If you love the look of traditional hurdles, rather than standard fencing panels, take a look at www.TheDorsetWoodsman.com

Welcome to The Dorset Woodsman. Hurdles are the natural, tasteful alternative to standard fencing panels. Made from locally sourced, sustainable Dorset hazel.
