Bowscar Red Lazonby
Bowscar Red is a sandstone of the Permian age. It is a fine to medium-grained stone, pale red or dark pink in colour which has a slight sparkle due to the presence of quartz grains throughout. This block is suitable for use in most aspects of construction including paving, walling, masonry and cladding.
Coursehill
Fine-grained and pale red/brown in colour, Coursehill is a fine-grained sandstone from the Triassic period. It’s slightly calcareous in nature which gives it a more dense texture. Coursehill is suitable for use in most aspects of construction including paving, walling, masonry and cladding.
Doddington
Doddington sandstone is from the fell sandstone group of the carboniferous limestone. It is a fine to medium-grained stone, speckled, light to deep purplish pink in colour with occasional rust-coloured markings. It is suitable for use in most aspects of construction including paving, walling, masonry and cladding.
Lambhill
A fine-grained and textured sandstone, Lambhill Buff is brown in colour with a silver heart. Lambhill should be suitable for use in construction including paving, walling, masonry and cladding.
Corncockle
The Permian Sandstone is extracted from the Corncockle quarry on the outskirts of Dumfries, Scotland. It’s medium-grained in texture, free of clay holes and other impurities and is characterised by its red or pink colouring. The red sandstone from this quarry is considered one of the finest found.
Orton Scar
A fine-grained stone from the Carboniferous age. It is dense and easily takes a polish. There is some variation in the stone with a range of grey/brown shades. Orton Scar Limestone is suitable for use in most aspects of construction including flooring, paving, walling and monumental masonry.
Salterwath Limestone
A fine-grained limestone of early Carboniferous age. Dark blue when split for walling pale grey when used for cladding. It is dense and easily takes a polish which gives a rich chocolate brown shade. Salterwath Limestone is suitable for use in most aspects of construction including flooring, paving and masonry.
St Bees Red
St Bees is from the new red sandstone of the Triassic age. It is a fine-grained stone dull red in colour. With both a fine grain and tight bedding, it is suitable for all aspects of masonry walling and profiling work. It is dull red in colour with a variation of dark reds running through the stone.
Wattscliffe
Wattscliffe Gritstone is a medium-grained and uniformly lilac/grey colour with very occasional buff/white intrusions. It is essentially a freestone and therefore almost equally durable in most common masonry applications whichever way its natural bed is laid.
