Stone walls solve particular challenges in this corner of South London. Those sloping plots near Eden Park station? Perfect for terraced retaining walls. Period properties throughout SE20 benefit from sympathetic stonework that matches existing features. Natural stone suits Beckenham's mix of grand houses and modern developments equally well.
Each wall begins with proper foundations - typically 450mm deep in local London clay. Material selection matters: Kentish ragstone complements older properties, while Portland stone offers clean lines for contemporary homes. Drainage channels prevent water pressure buildup behind retaining structures. Mortar joints get carefully pointed to withstand decades of British weather.
