ANCASTER ENGLISH LIMESTONE

This commercial grade oolitic limestone is extremely hardwearing and particularly suitable for heavy traffic areas. Pale biscuit coloured with a subtle pink undertone and small fossil markings. Popular for ecclesiastical use.

We recommend the following finishes which enhance the natural characteristics of this stone:

RECOMMENDED FINISHES

Honed

Square, clean edges with a very smooth, flat surface. The finish achieved can vary from matt to gloss depending on the stone type with harder stones tending to look more polished. Ground to a smooth, flat, consistent surface which is easy to maintain.

Leather

Square edges with a smooth pitted surface which has been created with a special high pressure mechanical action.

SIZE GUIDE

Ancaster is available in standard and custom sizes up to a maximum of 600 x 1000 mm.

All our products are bespoke and therefore made to order for each project.
