IMG 2917-001-Wood Blocks
This is one of the last remaining streets in London with wooden blocks as pavers. They had been used in Victorian London in order to dampen the noise of horses' hoofs on the road, but when they became sodden and stinky with horse urine they were removed. www.atlasobscura.com/places/chequer-street-wooden-paving
