Quarried stone for construction purposes comes in a great variety of shapes. There are rough stone shapes such as rubblestone and fieldstone. There are irregular flat shapes such as flagstone. Stone is cut to fit specific stone usage requirements. There are cut shapes such as ledgers or ledgestones, strips, and blocks.
