Hi all.
I'm looking for a goodly supply of stone flags (the ones that go on the
ground, not the ones up the pole).
We need about 210 Sq. M. of them.
Would appreciate any info at all.
TIA
Jim

We got a load from a reclamation yard in Gloucestershire, probably no
use to you but if you have one near you they are the best bet.

Try British Rail - or preserved railway lines. They often ripped up the
platforms of closed stations and stacked them up in the yards.

Or Google for reclamation yards, but the area you're after is a bit
large for that sort of place.

If you are looking for real stone instead of reconstituted the best
value for money is probably the imported Indian stone. It's quarried
in Kota in Rajasthan (I know cause I was thinking of importing it and
went out there!)

Lots of places sell it now and the price has fallen. I'm sure for that
quantity you can get it delivered from anywhere in the UK.

a google for

indian stone paving

should bring you lots of suppliers such as

lots of reclamation yards now stock it (although not necessarily the
cheapest place to buy) as cheaper alternative to english stone.

Many thanks, Denis, this looks like the right one!

We're going over there next week to have a look.

Thanks again
