Fieldstone Steps

Fieldstone steps, below.  Pure labor, no mortar/concrete.

Cheapest choice when I began my career.  Now, depending upon the jobsite, pre-cut stone is cheaper.  Easier to handle they reduce labor expense.

More odd, I meet people now, who think field stone steps are, by far, the cheaper choice.
