Slates in cork

jhegarty · 2010-03-23 15:31:52

Anyone know where I can buy small qualities of slates in cork. I only need about 6/8 of them , and the diy shops don't seem to have any.

Very old natural slate.

Doesn't need to look like the current ones as the area can only been while on the roof.

There's a place in fermoy. I don't know what it's called but when you're driving into the town from Cork it's just on the bend before driving onto the main street. I've passed it a few times and they always have old slates around the yard.
If you see the school on the right then you've gone a few buildings too far

adverts.ie or donedeal might be the way to go,builders providers will sometimes have some slates from a broken lot.
