QUOTE: Staddle Stones were originally used to raise tithe barns and granaries off the ground. This kept the produce from spoilage by damp, and also prevented mice and other vermin from interfering with it, as they couldn't climb past the staddle stone caps.

We still use a variation of those in Aust too, a shaped steel cap on top of a foundation piling..

These are great. I've seen pictures of something like this somewhere at an old estate and loved them. Thank you for making them for Sims 2.

Thanks for these, they have them as driveway decorations at a local garage near where I used to live, the buildings used to be part of a farm so I guess they were in use at some time in the distant past. Wonder if they have any idea of their value, they have about 7 or 8. I never thought of them as having a value, they are pretty common where I live, that's rural England for you
