Yorkstone is a dense, fine-grained sandstone quarried in Yorkshire. Known for its durability, it withstands heavy use and exposure to the elements. As a result, Yorkstone remains a favourite for outdoor and utility sinks and garden troughs. Its resistance to weather and water makes it perfect for sinks, troughs and garden features. Furthermore, over time, Yorkstone develops surface character that speaks to its age and quality.

With some refurbishment, this reclaimed Yorkstone shallow sink could return to domestic use in a boot room or utility space. However, it also excels outdoors. In a greenhouse, it provides a flat, usable basin for potting or rinsing tools. Alternatively, in the garden, it makes a practical station for soaking plants or washing produce. In addition, some buyers use sinks like this as the centrepiece of a bespoke water feature.
