York stone
Here are three photographs from a fabulous quarry I recently visited near Bradford in West Yorkshire. Wonderful, friendly, warm hearted people made me so welcome. Their skill and dedication I know I am going to always remember.
My journey was to find British stone, because I find it increasingly difficult to reconcile bringing stone from the other side of our precious planet, and also knowing that working conditions there are often unacceptable. As the years go by, I become convinced that using local stone in a garden is always successful, it seems immediately in place, natural and simply beautiful.
