More than likely,i have a few who are listed as mason for buildings. I would think stonemason would be correct,but apart from a monumental stonemason and stonemason for buildings can't think of any other type. Glen |

Some of Hubby's family are involved in Freemasonry, but they are not masons as such - they include prison officers and butchers amongst other things lol Liz |
