¶1The sole question presented on this appeal is whether “canyon stone,” a cement product, complies with the restriction in a deed that the exterior of all buildings on the property must be of masonry construction. The trial court held that “canyon stone” is within the definition of masonry. We affirm.
¶2The restriction in the deed is as follows:
“Such premises shall be used for residential purposes and the construction of one single family residence thereon, the exterior of which shall be of masonry construction and a garage or car-port which, if attached to the residence shall also be of masonry construction.”
¶3On the first appeal, involving the same parties and this restriction, Marshall v. Adams, Ky., 447 S.W.2d 57 (1969), we held that aluminum siding construction clearly violated the restriction.
¶4From our review of the record and the findings of the trial court, we see that “canyon stone” is a product made of cement and a blend of aggregates cast under high pressure in molds resulting in a rough, stone-like appearance.
¶5Appellants argue that “canyon stone” did not exist as a product in 1956 when the deed restriction was executed, and that by masonry construction the parties meant construction of brick or natural stone. We can only say that if this is what the parties intended they should have said so. We do not consider the restriction to be ambiguous. We are of the opinion that masonry construction means what it says, any construction requiring the services of a mason. See 55 C.J.S. Masonry, p. 979, where masonry is defined as follows:
“A generic and therefore an inclusive word, meaning that which is built by a *360mason; anything constructed by a mason of the materials used by masons, such as stone, brick, tile or the like.”
¶6Nor do we believe the restriction contemplated only products in existence at the time the restriction was executed. There is no such limitation in the language of the restriction. We hold that “canyon stone” construction is masonry construction.
¶7In deciding that masonry construction did not include aluminum construction, Marshallwent on to define masonry as “ ‘something built by a mason or masons, of stone, brick; brickwork or stonework.’ This is likewise the commonly understood meaning.”
¶8Appellants argue that this language is a restricted definition of masonry adopted by this court. We do not so construe it in the context in which it was used. We regard the language only as illustrative of the holding that “aluminum construction” is not masonry construction and not as an authoritative definition of masonry.
¶9The judgment is affirmed.
