Nice pictures!

I assumed that in order to corbel the roof you would need to use pretty large stones as they need to be big enough to overlap with each other, whereas the lower courses are built vertically so can use smaller stones. Not sure if that's right, perhaps Wideford would be a better person to ask as he knows a lot about drystone walling.
