Definition: In reference to stone walls, "dry wall" (or "drywall") is construction wherein the stones are not held together by mortar. Dry-wall construction requires greater precision in the way stones are stacked than does mortared-wall construction, since proper placement alone keeps the wall intact.
Alternate Spellings: drywall, dry-wall
Examples:
I prefer the appearance of dry wall, because I don't find mortared joints attractive.
