Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking.

The stone bridge looks completely handmade, including the shaping of every individual stone..
I guess most things were handmade, essentially, in those days, huh.

The arches are made from cut stone. The rest is field stone.

It's something like the stone used for my fireplace in PA - field stone for a most part, but cut stone where it needs to be squared off around the ash pit door and then the mantle - a ~10-12" x 6" x 6-7' single stone. Don't know where my grandfather got that one! When we took the fireplace apart, we were very lucky and did not break it, but it had a wee bit of weight to it, :wink: :wink:

That one looks like a typical country/small town house.
