My mistake, sort of. I had just been looking at the back of the wall,
under the railing. Except for that one spot, all the stonework is
studless. I was thinking of large swaths of studs on the stonework except
on the front, which wouldn't fit with the lack of studs on the
crenellation. Since the parapet isn't stone, however, there really aren't
many studs on the stone parts.
