There was a significant quantity of gravel under the stairs that I now have in a bin for use in the stone walkway project. Stone Walkway- I am using the larger stairs-rubble as stepping stones for a path I am building to repair a worn-away area (from myself and the dog going through there all the time---I take of the garbage through there and the dog loves doing laps of the house, etc).
