Dry stacked fencing has a history reaching back into ancient times. In Kentucky its history of construction can travel as far back as the late 1700s — believed to be built by slaves and/or Irish immigratnts. Kentucky’s natural limestone beds have provided the resources to construct the beautiful fences. Also, very common in New England.
