Buying stone for garden wall?

Mango Joe

Hi All,

I know I could just ring around the quarries or whatever but looking for personal recommendations for where to go to source nice and suitable stone for some garden feature walls.

In terms of suitability Ive been told that some quarries include massive rocks in delivery which are difficult to then break and use etc.

Then just colour and price + delivery cost I suppose.

PS Also if anyone knows where to buy the stone masons hammers etc it would be great - First stone project obviously 

db

http://www.kilmeedysandstone.com/ will deliver 1 tonne bags of sandstone or limestone. The biggest cost is the delivery so if you are only getting 1 bag it will be expensive.

Adverts has free rocks available from somebody in Caherdavin.

No idea if they're suitable but worth a click at least.
