From "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone":

--------------
"Welcome," said Hagrid, "to Diagon Alley."

He grinned at Harry's amazement. They stepped through the archway. Harry looked quickly over his shoulder and saw the archway shrink instantly back into solid wall.

Why is "solid wall" without "a" article? It is a countable noun, isn't it?

Bye, All!
