When I look at really old stonework I cant help but imagine in my minds eye what must have been there building that . I look at the old caps and large stones and can imagine them casually putting it on without even thinking so far into the future Worked at a old local pub and went up in the attic and it was stunningly old up there . 6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
