A lighter shade of natural limestone, with plenty of character. 🪨

Our Clipsham Bidwell Cream Sawn on Bed Walling Stone offers beautiful pale cream tones and a refined, natural finish.

Quarried locally, it's a popular choice across Lincolnshire and South Yorkshire, providing an attractive alternative to the no-longer-quarried Tadcaster limestone.

Particularly suited to larger course heights, Bidwell Cream creates elegant, well-proportioned stonework for both traditional and contemporary projects.

Cobbles or setts… which would you choose?

Both bring natural texture and character to an outdoor space, but there are some key differences.

Cobbles tend to have a more rounded, irregular appearance, creating a softer, more traditional finish with plenty of variation.

Setts are more uniform and rectangular, offering a neater, structured look while retaining the individual character of natural stone.

From pathways and courtyards to driveways and landscaping details, both can create a distinctive finish that only gets better with age.

So, which gets your vote? 👇

Project spotlight | A self-build designed to belong. 🏡

For this home near Stamford, natural stone was chosen over reconstituted alternatives for its character, longevity and ability to weather beautifully.

Locally quarried Clipsham stone helped the new property complement the traditional architecture of its surroundings.

Our team also created bespoke architectural details, including the door surrounds, balcony and distinctive entrance stonework.

A great example of how local materials and skilled craftsmanship can give a new-build home an authentic sense of place. 🪨
