Aren't they just!
I bet Shy is dribbling over the mathematical computations that must have gone into those inverse arches

Is that a viaduct?
Jeez, that was bad luck, just when the photographer was getting his lense out, two birds turn up and ruin the shot!...................what was the chances of that!..................seriously though boys, any spiral twisting chimney stacks etc?
Well, fancy tumbling into this!
Looks like English to me, definitely not a frog, and I would hope not too flemish. Both would make a good bond, with a header, then a stretcher on the bed - and perhaps finished off on edge? I don't know
Dentil work seems fine with no dog-toothing, and corbels seem in proportion and not too top heavy.
A nice smooth face, no perforations and not glazed either, which should make them quite nice to lay - with little, if any, entrainment. I'm not sure if the face would get messy, but I suppose it depends on the size of the trowel and the wrist action.
Nice to see that there is no double bull-nose, but that would not be as bad as a double can't - which is never good for the toolbag
As arches go, some prefer a plain rough one, some go for the single ring and some prefer a collar. Gothic can be OK, if a little awkward, but generally most go for a nice curve and a skewback. Personally, I'm not too keen on the Welsh, but some of the ladies may prefer soldiers
And if you are doing any intricate arching, don't forget to use rubbers to maintain the good looks after a few months.

Oh yes...the radius of that intrados is something to beholdI bet Shy is dribbling over the mathematical computations that must have gone into those inverse arches
Class mate, well impressed with that effort!
Hampton Court is impressive.
