STONE WALLS

Ravenfield

Thrybergh
Stone walls had many variations in toppers, The battlement style is possibly peculiar to Thrybergh, as neither I or Jonathan Dabs can recall seeing similar toppers elsewhere. As Kids we would often grind at the stone with a penny coin, as you can see from the photo there are quite large circular impressions on the face of the Toppers.

The photo above has three variations in toppers., and uncut stone used in the base of the war Memorial
Thrybergh, Dalton, and Ravenfield had several sandstone quarry's, back in the 1800's, and early 1900's the earlier stone used in the area was provided by these quarry's.
