I would think, depending on the soils underneath, it may have drained, percolated, but after all the years of being in use, organic matter, hard to say now.
If those cobbles are projecting, or the floor is concave, not the best thing for them to be on, nor is concrete, though our old barn had concrete floors, you would have to ask a vet or someone knowledgeable as to the problems associated with these kinds of floors in stalls.
One thing you might be able to do it put in stone dust, (like what they sprinkle on those cold applied pavements) like 6", compact, I've mixed portland with it and kept it moist to bind. That will provide some cushion and drainage, but its a maintenance item too, the stall will get concave, due to erosion from urine streams. Its a good concern, because being properly bedded, including whats underneath may very well save you a vet call or problems. Ours get concave and irregular and I think they get hock sores, or wear em down til the become same. Matting 3 stalls might also be the way to go, at least its only 3.
