Description

This picture shows typical construction methods. A stone wall on each side filed with rubble (loose rock and cement). Covering the stone is a thick cement type plaster that was then painted. This picture also shows a newer layer of wall added over the finished plaster of an older wall. If our houses or commercial buildings were built this well they would last hundreds of years.
