Sawn On Bed Ironstone Walling Stone- Seconds (Grade B)
We have a large number of approx. 4 – 4.5 square metre bulk bags of sawn on bed ironstone walling stone seconds.
This beautiful, versatile ironstone, quarried locally, has gone through the cropping and dressing process but these pieces are considered too irregular for use with Grade A stones. They are structurally sound with the same durability, porosity, water absorption and compressive strength as Grade A. Grade B stones are visually more varied and the irregular shape means they are slightly harder to work with.
Brown with blue veining, this ironstone is ideal for renovations and walling projects.
Please note, we have priced these stones competitively as some will require squaring up with an axe.
