stone paving

Hard ground covering

Stone paving is a surface made of flat stones laid as a floor or walkway.

The stones may be cut into regular shapes or left irregular for a more rustic look.

Stone paving appears on patios, garden paths, and plazas: The old courtyard had worn stone paving that had been there for centuries.
