Random stone and brick on white-rendered walls?

Something I've noticed a lot in the UK (usually on houses built from the 1900s through the 1930s, though sometimes on houses that look a bit older) are seemingly random bricks or stones on otherwise smooth rendered walls. Like the left hand wall on this house. Is this a decorative architectural reference to something specific, or is it just a purely decorative flourish that doesn't reference or represent anything? It's certainly not actually functional, right?
