Quoins

The
Quoins or outside corners of each structure were often used as
opportunities to set the building apart from others. Some craftsman
simply cut each corner others would draft the margin. Some craftsman
used this opportunity to distinguish and accent their structures with
sawn details. Whatever the choice the quoins are a feature that
defines the quality of the craftsman that cut and installed them. This
is a point where the builder would take special care to cut and set
each stone. A corner out of true would not set plumb and would reflect
poorly all the way down the line and on the master in charge.
