The invention aims to make outdoor structure such as gate post suitable for mass production by achieving weight reduction of such structure so that the structure can be manually transported, installed, on one hand, and by facilitating adhesive fixation of artificial stones, on the other hand. A substrate of the structure is molded from foam plastics and a nail is partily embedded in each artificial stone during a process of molding this stone so that the nail may partily project out from the rear surface of the artificial stone. Adhesive mortar is applied to the substrate and/or the artificial stone and then the artificial stone is pressed against the substrate so that the nail may penetrate the substrate and thereby the artificial stone may be adhesively fixed. In this manner, the structure is effectively weight-reduced and the nail is held by the substrate under an elasticity of the foamed plastics until the adhesive mortar is set. The artificial stone is prevented by such provisional fixation from scaling off or falling off and there by production is facilitated.
