I recently bought a house and had assumed that the walls were made of Poroton blocks. However, I no longer believe that to be the case. Can anyone identify this lightweight building block?
It appears to be a composite material with integrated insulation. Possibly something with expanded clay?
Looking forward to your help.

I would say this is a lightweight concrete block. The dark part is the porous aggregate, which makes it a lightweight concrete block.
