Reading Pam's account can give an incorrect impression that the entire
gauged edifice was constructed in this mix, when it was only the elements to
be carved. The rest of the gauged edifice was set in standard lime putty: silver
sand mortar; hence the slightly thicker joint size that is clearly visible (Fig. 75).
