What is a Paver?

The ancient Romans paved their roads with stone; some of those roads have lasted to this day. Those are pavers. In older cities in America you may find cobblestone streets. Those are pavers, too. Locally, we used Medina stone because horse hooves and carriage wheels didn’t slip on it when wet.  All of these are pavers.  A sidewalk made of clay bricks are also called pavers.

Pavers can be made of natural stone, clay or concrete.  They can be anything that is laid on the ground in pieces to create a surface.

Here’s an example where we upcycled antique pavers to recreate a century-old trail head:
