Chris Swales: Master Of Stone

Chris Swales: Master of Stone
Chris Swales is a highly acclaimed Master Stone Mason and Carver from Skipton. The 38-year-old opened his business ‘Swales In The Dales’ in 2005 and since then his work has become renowned all over Yorkshire and Lancashire. However, it has been quite a journey for Chris who suffers from Fibromyalgia to get to where he is today.
...
Sadly, in 2013, Chris was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia – a condition that cause widespread pain and muscle stiffness along with other physically draining symptoms. Fibromyalgia started to have a huge impact on Chris’ day to day life and he began to suffer numerous side effects from the large doses of medication he was required to take.
Chris sighs: “Despite the regular crippling pains, I made certain this debilitating illness would not stop me from exercising my love of stone carving and stone masonary work.
“I found the daily effects physically and mentally exhausting and so I realised the heavy work involved in the construction of drystone walls out on the moors and fells in all kind of intemperate weather was exacerbating my condition. Therefore I decided I would promote and attempt to attract orders for the much lighter stone carving work.”
