Default flint blocks

Anyone got any experience with concrete blocks faced with flint? Mostly
produced by small manufacturers by the look of it, and not easy to get a
guide price. An adjoining property to us is building an extension, and I
wouldn't mind their new wall replacing the boundary fence if it was a
bit more interesting than rendered blockwork. I thought maybe brick
style faced blocks but can't find any examples online.
Anyone got any suggestions for a wall they wouldn't mind staring at in
the long term, given that I probably won't persuade them to use bricks,
or shall I just retain the existing fence (and the maintenance thereof)?
