Clearing stone walls and bushes etc,

BeeDI

I'm thinking of clearing off a take of stone walls lined with bushes and briars etc, to make one large field 12 acres out of the existing 4 paddocks nightmare for the silage equipment.
The walls are generally old part fallen single random stones ranging from big size (as much as you could lift to put in place), right down to the tiny little pieces.
I was thinking of opening a trench and burrying them along where they lie at the minute, but as the place has a myiriad of old stone drains whose locations in dont reliably know, I'm half afraid of possibly interefering with them, and causing myself grief in the future with wet patches etc.

What to lads generally do in case like this? Make a big pile in the corner of the field??

could you get a stone crusher, crush the whole lot, leave you a big pile of drainage stone? probably expensive I suppose to hire that gear

stockpile it.

Stone is always useful.

any plans to lay some roadways in the next few years? or expand the yards?
