cobblestone road
Rounded-rock street surface
A cobblestone road is a road paved with cobblestones—rounded stones set into the ground to create a durable surface.
Common in historic European cities before asphalt, cobblestone roads remain in old town centers and historic districts, valued for their charm despite being rough on vehicles and pedestrians: The taxi rattled down the cobblestone road.
