A good example of weathering, this is the exposed west-facing side of a gravestone in the churchyard at St Mary the Virgin, Stamfordham.

Extreme weathering of exposed sandstone, once the "hard surface" has been penetrated in some way; note the honeycombing and inclusions. Plus the spiderwebs. [the layer above is heavily weathered concrete / lime mortar made with "beach aggregate"]

pronounced surface weathering and lichen patches on the west face of one of the sentinel stones at the entrance to West Kennet Long Barrow. [with an added worker Honey Bee]

Sandstone turret on the New Old Quay at Whitehaven, showing some quite extensive weathering. But having seen some of the recent storms - possibly erosion as well from wave action, despite the height.
