Architecture / architecture
English term or phrase: quoin
Quoin is een Engelse term voor uitstekende natuurstenen blokken aan de zijkant van gevels die in de zestiende en zeventiende eeuw veel toegepast werden. Ik weet hoe ze eruit zien, maar ik ben uitdrukkelijk op zoek naar de Nederlandse term (als die bestaat).

hoeksteen
Explanation:
Vertaling in mijn Wolters' woordenboek EN-NL.
Vermoedelijk < Fr. 'coin'

Lijkt dat je niet iets?
Misschien 'quoin' in haakjes ernaast plaatsen?

Hartelijk dank iedereen. Een sluitsteen zit bovenin, dat was het dus niet, maar hoeksteen is de beste oplossing hier.
