    and this is a Warwickshire wagon on display, that I can honestly say ,my Grandfather used because he worked for that Farmer from the age of ten.

        Its a hard limestone, part of the jurassic belt that goes diagonally from Dorset to Northants. You can burn it to make a natural hydraulic lime, but I don't think the owner would like that:heehee:

        We got it down here, as well as the golden & cream coloured limestones. Our nearest Oolitic limestone is the Bath stone, which is a much finer Oolite than your Cotswold ones.
