Seen across the parade ground, the figures against the far wall are dwarfed by the size of the stones, each carefully shaped and aligned.

The stones fit so perfectly that no blade of grass or steel can slide between them. There is no mortar. They often join in complex and irregular surfaces that would appear to be a nightmare for the stonemason.
