Walling Stone

Our Cornish walling stone range blends authentic British craftsmanship with lasting performance, ready for both traditional and contemporary projects. Whether you’re building a dry stone wall, a garden feature, a property boundary or the outer face of a new build, our granite, slate, limestone and sandstone walling stones offer unmatched strength and a naturally elegant finish.

Sourced from our own Cornish quarries, every stone brings its own texture, colour and character. Choose rugged split-faced and cropped finishes for rustic, heritage charm, or precisely sawn and hammered stone for a cleaner, architectural look. Whatever the setting, natural walling stone weathers beautifully and only improves with age.

As one of the UK’s trusted natural stone walling suppliers, we help homeowners, builders, architects and garden designers choose the right stone for each project, backed by an expert in-house team. Browse the full range below, or read our guide to choosing walling stone before you buy.

How to choose the right walling stone

The best walling stone depends on the look you’re after, where the wall is going and how it will be built. Here’s a quick guide from our team.

Match the stone to your setting

Granite suits almost any project and is the most durable choice for exposed and coastal sites. Cornish slate brings striking colour and a fine, layered texture. Limestone offers softer, lighter tones for a gentler look, while sandstone adds warmth. If you’re matching an existing wall, our geologist can help you find the closest fit.

Consider the finish

Sawn stone has neat, consistent beds for tidy coursing and a more contemporary result. Cropped and split-faced stone gives a traditional, characterful face that’s ideal for cottages and rural boundaries. Hammered and dressed Limestone walling sits somewhere between the two — refined, but still natural.

Think about the build

Dry stone walls, mortared garden walls, retaining walls and stone cladding all place different demands on the stone. Bed depth matters too: our sawn Cornish granite walling, for example, is supplied in 100mm beds for efficient, structurally sound coursing. Tell us about your project and we’ll point you to the right option.

Work out how much you need

As a rough guide, one tonne of 100mm walling stone covers around 4m² of wall face. Measure the total face area of your wall, allow a little extra for cutting and wastage, and our team can confirm quantities and lead times.
