Marble Headstones, Memorials, Gravestones
Marble is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock resulting from the metamorphism of limestone, composed mostly of calcite (a crystalline form of calcium carbonate, CaCO3). It is extensively used for sculpture, as a building material, and in many other applications. The word "marble" is colloquially used to refer to many other stones that are capable of taking a high polish
Bethersden marble paving stone as found around medieval houses in the Bethersden, Smarden, Pluckley, Headcorn areas of Kent. Although referred to as marble this stone is made up of small fossilised crustaceans. Also known locally sometimes as winklestone, pieces are irregular in shape and the color is similar to weathered Kent Ragstone (see photos). Famous examples are the pavements in Biddenden High street and around many of the well known Wealden Hall houses in mid Kent.
