Hornton stone masonry near Shire Hall

The marbled green and brown Hornton stone is quarried near Edgehill on the Oxfordshire-Warwickshire border. It is a hard limestone with some iron content, as I understand it. This wall supports a pedestrian ramp into Shire Hall. It appears to be solid stone rather than a stone facing to a concrete block wall.
