flagstones

Flat walkway stones

Flagstones are flat slabs of stone used for paving walkways, patios, and floors.

The stones are typically irregular in shape, fitted together like puzzle pieces with gaps filled by gravel or mortar.

A path of flagstones led through the garden to the back gate.

The singular flagstone can refer to the material or an individual slab.
