I have looked through the topics but not found anybody doing this. I have a ringbeam that sits above ground level in large parts of the site so the plinths wall for the block and beam floor sits on top of the exposed ground beam , which gives a sort of plinths at the end. I am unsure how to go about with covering this exposed ring beam . Normally would be covered by soil/backfill obviously and just the walls coming out above visible. Anybody done this or came across a project like this?

Get some of the steel they use for gabion baskets

make a basket that is only 150mm deep

fix it against the ring beam

select some nice stone

fill baskets so it looks like you have a nice plinth of stone around the house.

or use mortar and stick stone to it ?

like tiling only vertical 

 If you were closer I would suggest some nice granite .LOL

 but maybe cotswold stone ?

Depends on the height you need to cover, i'm going to use slates for the area between bottom of render bell cast and ground level
