The traditional material here is "riverstone" - granite blocks that have been slammed together in the river floods until they have a hardness approaching diamond - mortared with limestone mortar. (And that's how my house is built: it's hard enough putting up a shelf let alone making a hole big enough to see through!)

But more modern designs (i.e. built in the 20th century) in the UK are brick (or brick with a wooden frame) externals, with plasterboard for internal, non-supporting walls. It's cheaper, and easier for the builder to be flexible (or muck it up completely and nobody notices).
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
