The distinctive blue-grey colouring of Blue Lias limestone, supplied by Hadspen Quarry in Somerset, is ideal for creating attractive paths and stone floors.
Blue Lias is one of the most distinctive and sought-after natural stones for walling projects. Its unique blue-grey hue, combined with its weather-resistant properties, makes it ideal for both modern constructions and the restoration of historic buildings. Quarried in Somerset, Blue Lias is known for its durability and versatility, making it a timeless choice for various walling applications.
Coursed Blue Lias Walling provides a structured and uniform appearance. This type of stone is available in a variety of heights, typically ranging from 2.5 to 6 inches, allowing for flexibility in the design and construction of walls. The coursed format is split-faced, giving the stone a naturally rugged yet refined appearance. Builders often choose coursed walling for projects where a formal, consistent look is desired, such as new-builds or more contemporary designs.
The stone’s bed depth makes it robust and resilient in the face of changing weather conditions, ensuring it stands the test of time. The option of choosing between fossil bed or marble bed further adds to the customisation of your walling project. These options offer subtle differences in texture and appearance, giving architects and builders more creative control.
For a more rustic and natural finish, Blue Lias Random Walling is an excellent choice. This option is supplied in a mix of sizes, creating a less structured, more organic appearance. Random walling is often favoured for projects that aim to blend with their natural surroundings or restore historic buildings. The variation in stone sizes and the split-face finish provide depth and character, making each wall unique. Whether used for garden walls, boundary walls, or entire building facades, Blue Lias Random Walling delivers a timeless, traditional look.
