摘要
A previously unknown building stone that had been extensively used around the Chichester area of West Sussex was recognized in 1991. This was named 'Lavant Stone' after the village near the original quarry site. Lavant Stone is a partially cemented spicular chalk from the Early Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) phosphatic chalk deposit at Stoke Clump, north of Chichester. Lavant Stone was used extensively within a 15 km radius of Chichester between the twelfth and fourteenth centuries, but has also been recognized in third/fourth century Roman masonry. The geology, use, distribution and dating of Lavant Stone is reviewed.
