A stone wall wall=stone is a wall constructed from stones with mortar used to bind them together. The stones used may be irregular in size. Historically, the stones used would often have been sourced locally, but now may come from across the globe.

If the wall is built without mortar use wall=dry_stone instead.

How to map

Draw a way way where the wall is and add barrier=wall + wall=stone.

Alternative tag

Mappers may alternatively choose to map a stone wall as barrier=wall + material=stone.
