Colour and Variation

 

 It goes without saying that this is a natural product 100 million years in the making. No one piece of stone will be the same, with varying colour and pattern even among the smallest of boulders. 

The iron oxide content in Bargate stone is what contributes to the wonderful golden/honey colour we are familiar with.

A large proportion of our stone is from harder deeper seams displaying more grey colour tones (the prized stone of past quarries). As the stone oxygenates and weathers, it will become even harder and the colour will change. This can easily be seen from splitting good quality reclaimed Bargate stone.

Looking for dressed, coursed Bargate stone?

Unlike many other types of stone that can be processed in large flat scants, or soft enough to be easily sawn, Bargate stone is typically difficult to work with. The process of dressing and sizing stone for the best coursed stonework is all done by hand and very labour intensive. Currently we are only offering this as part of a 'supply and lay' service.

 

We also have on site facilities for cutting dressed stone down to specific bed sizes for our projects.
