Surely that's what you're referring to as they are the only 'corrugated' 'stones' in there that I'm aware of.
I was told that their purpose was anti-tank bollards dating back to WW2 !
One of the 'custodians/security guards' who used to walk about with a single barrel shotgun told me that in the early '80s !
(I lived very nearby)....
Maybe he was at the wind-up ?! ::):
