Quarried at Elton near Matlock in Derbyshire.

Wattscliffe Gritstone is medium grained and uniformly lilac / grey in colour with occasional buff / white intrusions. It is essentially a free stone and therefore almost equally durable in most common masonry applications whichever way its natural bed is laid.

The Wattscliffe stone is particularly suitable for Perthshire in Scotland as well as Southern Germany, although it would and does grace many other areas. The stone has few natural flaws and cuts well with a general blade, making it a sound economical choice for stone producers.

The quarry is worked periodically by our Southern quarry team, either to order or to replenish stocks. Availability from stock is usually within 7 to 10 days. Please contact our sales office for further details on 01246 554450 or email: tinab@realstone.co.uk

Average block size: 2000L x 1000W x 1000H
