Softness: Limestone is softer than granite or basalt, so it may be more prone to scratching or wear in high traffic areas.
Color Variation: Natural limestone can vary in color and texture, which adds to its charm but may require careful selection for a uniform look.

The word cobblestone is often used to describe such treatment. Setts were relatively even and roughly rectangular stones that were laid in regular patterns. They gave a smoother ride for carts than cobbles, although in heavily used sections, such as in yards and the like, the usual practice was to replace the setts by parallel limestone slabs set apart by the standard axle length of the time.
