I personally see cobble stones and think "pedestrian", not "car". Hence the instinct vs. observation.

Maybe I'm dating myself (Did he say he's dating himself...!

In my earlier years I can remember cobble stone roads (no not Roman... I grew-up in Lowell Mass.

) but have never seen cobble stone "sidewalks".
I should have noted in the previous post that the cobble stones are ground level, not elevated, as might be expected in ornamental inner circle, as opposed to a functional inner circle!
