Platform Decks

How do I attach a wooden decking post to my stone steps?

I have to cover my stone garden steps with wooden decking. My problem is, I need to know how I attach the wooden posts onto the top or side of the existing stone steps? The stone steps have a height of roughly 15cm each. The posts can't go into the floor as I've just had block paving put down which I should have thought about beforehand really.

1. Tap Con fasteners, or Red Head brand fasteners
2. See if any of these fitting help? http://www.click4garden.co.uk/index.php?getcatid=31 then scroll down to the plates.
3. Screwfix have a good range of deck fixtures & fittings http://www.screwfix.com/cats/101746/Building/Decking-Fencing - perhaps you can find something useful there?
4. Metpost do a good one for bolting directly into stone... Called the Metpost Bolt-Down, it sits on the concrete, brick or decking and is fixed down with four sturdy style fittings depending on the material your attaching to.
