That's that beautiful banded slate that is so well represented in Concord (among other places). I'm still not quite clear on its origin -- I think it's from Braintree, but I'd like to have someone more knowledgeable specify the locality. That quarry was the principal slate source for the region before the Pin Hill quarry in Harvard was opened.
