Sett <-> flattened cobblestone:
Sett are roughly rectangular blocks, hewn from big blocks of stone (granite
or basalt).
Flattened cobblestones are made from roughly round cobblestones by
flattening the part that faces the road surface.
Cobblestones and pebbles are essentially the same: pebblestones are small
cobblestones.
See wikipedia for more details.
