I have recently jointed this blog, the only slanted stone walls i have ever used are for retaining walls, in the construction codes are known as GRAVITY WALLS, and can be constructed with natural local river boulders, or quarry stone, (rockery), also in great variety precast concrete decorative stone, etc.

The system is used for major highway retaining walls thoughout the country, from small size to humungus precast blocks, and similar designs.

If you look in the internet under "Gravity Retaining Walls" you will have a enotmous amount of info and sources.

Good night.
