A rough, hard building stone, known in the trade as ragstone.
Ragg is quarried stone that breaks with an uneven, jagged surface rather than a smooth one, which is exactly what the name suggests. Builders once used it for rough walling and foundations where appearance mattered less than strength, and the same word also names a coarse woollen yarn spun with a similarly rough texture.
