Purbeck Walling goes through the following proceedures to ensure we maintain quality of product. Walling is also a by-product. [see crazy paving].

  1. Quarrying and selecting stone suitable for walling.
  2. Storing of block to ensure prevention of frost penetration.
  3. Hand selection and splitting of larger laminatd stone and then breaking to provide walling in usable sizes, ensuring that each stone has a fair face.
  4. Test for soundness and stack ready for delivery either tipped loose or on pallets for fork-lift unloading.

Walling may be selected for size and colour at an extra cost. Please advise the quarry prior to delivery of several loads as random items may differ in size and colour between loads.
