- Summary:
-
"All of the professionally built dry stone walls in the Kiama district were built by Tom Newing, who learned his trade in England, migrating to Australia in 1857. His only assistant was Billy Cooke and in his later years, for a brief period, he was assisted by his sons Reg and Roy. Tom built his first wall here at Foxground and I like to think it is the wall on the eastern boundary of our family farm, some two hundred metres in length and still in mostly pristine condition. See 'Stout hearts & leathery hands' (Rigby 1968), pages 47-53."--Description supplied by photographer.
