Newly quarried Yorkstone is available as slabs for paving, setts and walling stones. The carriageway is formed from a mixture of stone setts and cobbles. Her body was sunk into the River Lea using discarded cobbles (granite setts). The road still has patches of stone setts (cobbles) in between tarmac to this day. Raccoon dogs may extensively use badger setts for shelter. Badgers typically retreat to their setts at daybreak and come out at dusk. The granite setts which form the approach ramps were taken up and relaid in 1978. Such elaborate setts with extensive tunneling take many years for badgers to complete. Badgers typically eat prey on the spot, and rarely transport it to their setts. They house several badger families that use these setts for decades. They may share their setts with red foxes or European rabbits. Pitched surfaces predate the use of regularly-sized granite setts by more than a thousand years. A number of the streets remain paved with stone setts. A cross of granite setts in the road opposite Balliol College marks the location. The Hunting Act of 2004 further banned fox hunters from blocking setts during their chases.
