Talk:Galleting

Untitled

Hello, regarding this sentence "Galleting was mostly used in England, where it was common in South East England and the county of Norfolk." galleting is also very common in parts of France, I saw an immense number of old stone walls in PAris and its suburbs that had galleting. I'll try to get photos the next time I travel to Paris. Any Wikipedians out there who are interested, look around Bobigny and Drancy. There's lots of newer buildings but there are some older stone houses here and there that have good examples of galleting in their joints. I don't recall streets however.. The Resturant Riad Salam in Saint-Maur-des-Fossés has galleting, you can see it more closely on the second story. The stonework is all covered with a very old thin lime render, but bits of the galleting outlining the stone joints can be seen. In the same area, Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, there are numerous stone walls and old houses with nice examples of galleting. For example, walk south down the Avenue de la Libération, heading away from the river, after about 5 or 6 blocks you will pass a couple of old stone property walls with galleting on your left, and one or two old houses if I recall. There's quite a bit scattered elsewhere, around Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, but Drancy had some interesting examples too. I hope this is helpful ! 208.65.192.1 (talk) 14:50, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

Smscott025, I suspect that few people are watching this page (tool says less than 30, but probably much lower), and I'm not a specialist. Great if you can expand this. Not obligatory, but if you use [[Wikipedia:Citation templates|cite templates] it ensures accuracy and consistent appearance. If you need any help on the technicalities of Wikipedia, rather than stonework, let me know. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:17, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Jimfbleak, thank you for your response! I will let you know if I have any questions about Wikipedia, as this is my first foray into editing on the site. Smscott025 (talk) 01:24, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
