Limestone

Stockscape’s source and supply of this practical and versatile material allows for great uniformity in shade and tone together with its own uniqueness giving it an earthy appeal.

Technically it is a sedimentary rock composed largely of the mineral calcite, the remainder being made up by silica, flint, sand and clay. It is quarried from places, which millions of years ago, would have formed the floor of a shallow area of the sea.

Limestone is formed close to the earth’s surface and therefore captures fossilized plant and animal life. Like granite, quality limestone is used in a wide range of interior and exterior building applications such as paving, interior flooring and cladding, offering a harmonious, seamless appearance to any prestigious domestic scheme.

Types

Slabs

Slabs with a natural surface and sawn edges are often used for the paving and facing of both internal and external areas. They are the main paving item for squares, streets, pavements, arcades and shopping centres. Sizes: Standard and bespoke available on request.

Setts

They provide texture in the streetscape. Being an extremely versatile product, the sett is used either to contain or mark the edge of paved areas, squares, streets or to shape flower-beds, traffic islands and soft landscaping. They can also be used decoratively to embroider paved areas.

Sizes: Standard and bespoke available on request.

Kerbs

Usually paved vertically, kerbstones can be used for shaping footpaths, flower-beds, stairs or for marking edges of pedestrian paved areas.
