Caen today is an attractive town with beautiful abbeys and churches, and houses built with mellow Caen stone.
HDS was used because the architect wanted a complete visual image of the Caen stone walls, marble wainscot and detailing and the pink marble floor.
The original, in distinctive light-coloured Caen stone, cost pounds 3,937 in 1854.
