Are swallowtail merlons all curved?
#4
From what I've seen so far, and this last photo definitely helps to clarify the situation, it appears that the straight-line version is more often a strictly stone/brick and mortar construction. While the curved-line version often seems to have a top layer of tile. And since the tile is curved, the top-line 'V' of the merlon is also curved.
