... or that you are there...

Many years ago, when I lived at my parents' house, a man came to the front door and asked me if we wanted stone cladding on the wall of the property. You know – the stuff that makes a wall look like stone.

He seemed nonnonplussed by my amusement.

The wall at that side was built of stone.

Just noted the "nonnonplussed" in my last comment. This does not imply he was plussed.

He appeared to be rather thick and so would your stone wall be.

I wonder if a friend of his goes door to door offering to gild lilies for a fee.
in reply to Katherine Bond

The wall was about 3 feet thick as it was.

The lilies would be gilded with fool's gold.

He’s the one who decided to demolish the wing without approval, so yes.
