cobblestone roads
Bumpy old streets
Roads paved with cobblestones—rounded stones set in sand or mortar to create a durable surface.
Cobblestone roads were common in European and American cities before asphalt, and many survive in historic districts.
The uneven surface creates a distinctive rumble under wheels: The taxi bounced along the cobblestone roads of the old quarter.
