When Labour was Cheap

[martycon]

This mortised, post and rail fence would have to be a survivor of weather and fires for well over 100 years. In those days labour was cheap and materials expensive, so land was cleared, and the fallen timber was sawn and split to make the fences. The only cost was sweat.
