May I ask where it is? Is the Stanage name of this place?
I wonder,because some stones are clearly cutten into a squery blocks,like in anciant times - destin to build from...

Thank You for the answer.
I was curious,because one polish archeolog descovered in Poland places where the anciant civilizations were taking stones from,but what is super intersting about, is the way they depart blocks like that from solid rock walls...
They - we don't know who and how long ego exacly - but probably over 13 000 years ago -(befor metheorites destroyed the Earth)- they had some speciall drill that was not round but it leave triangle,very smooth marks, that was going deep in the rock and when was already meter or two deep in, did create some sort of well controled explosions, that went out through the points of the tringle drill and it separate the rock into sauery block - pefect squers. And it leave very characteristick marks on the rest of the stone wall... can still see the two smooth sides of the tringle drill and in the point between them -in the connections - along all the lenght are crscks from that controled explosions,the tringle shape is still sometimes found at the bottom of that drill marks and they are smooth and dented like if they were polished... now people have absolutely not that high technology to even get the round drills to work so smooth like marks in the stones in Egipt for example...
And that place, well one of such places is in center of Krakow in the park, where people go for walk! It is not officially announced because it would be a reason to re-write the history books!!!
So I was wondering if there are also visible such marks on the bigger rocks...
It was very clever system,if the tringle drill was inserted wrong direction, it would not create a squery bolks.
I hope my describtion is clear to understand,but if not I will try better...

If You interested here is the link to the video where he show it, it's spoken in Polish lenguage,but the marks are specking for themselves...
This one is from the park in Krakow...

The other actually also from Krakow,but later on he shoes fotos of stones from all over Poland,at the sea side and from single mountain near my home city even! (WrocΕaw)

I hope it works...
In second video he explain the differences between different ways of cutting into the stons,becase there are also younger marks from less elaborated drills,but the tringle ones are very clear...
Sometimes sides of stones are really straight,sometimes dented or have a little piece sticking out if the cracking went not perfect,but that is also the reason why we find them loose scatered around becase they used only perfect ones to build...build the cities!
And if You look at realy old buildings,they are made of such huge stones atleast at the bases of constructions...
Some of them maybe still original from - very, very long ago...,but this blocks were often re-used especially if the religious or political sistemes changed...
If You see scratches going paralel on all the lenght of one side of the stone,then You looking at marks left by Ice -( interesting thing he said about the Ice-age is that the Ice was not able to push this big stones while it was growing/moving forward, because the bottom of that masive of Ice was ofcours melting from hotter temperature of the earth and it had sort of slushy - smoothy like water-ice consistantion , and what brought that stones was actually rivers formed from melted ice, which were pouring back after the Ice melted, and from south to north not other way around as we comonly thing now...
This Franc Zalewski also descovered very interesting thing about pyramides,that the oldest one, the big one in Gisa and place around it is covered with some sort of lacker that could become only in super high temperature...like from metheorites blasts...we can't recreate this substance until now...
The other pyramides don't have it,because they were made after the metheorites shower 13 000 years ago,and they were poor imitations of lost civilizations that builded that big pyramide in Gisa...
And there was a glue between the block of pyramide... residue of such glue he found as well on some of this stones in Poland and this glue protected the sides of stones from corosion...
Btw. Some smooth cutten sides are so old that minerals in the stone grew over,making it look not so smooth anymore,or that softer minerals mixed naturally in stone structure already coroded faster than harder ones - making a service of stone rough...
I am pretty sure,that stones, that I found here in Holland,where I live now,are similair way cutten,but I haven't found yet tringle marks with cracks into the rock...
I hope You enjoy it even if it is in Polish lenguage...
(Your name sounds kind of slavic though...)
