Chassenon lithic breccia
The best place to observe Chassenon lithic breccia is the small town of Chassenon. The Roman baths (Cassinomagus) just outside the town, and the town church (Eglise de Chassenon) use the breccia extensively in their outer walls. The images below show the church in the centre of the village and the latter three images are of breccia slabs used in the outer wall.
