Purbeck Stone Signage
House Signs & Memorials

We have found that many of our customers now prefer to have their stone house sign or memorial made with stone quarried in the UK, rather than one which has been imported from China or India.

Purbeck stone is a very durable and hard wearing stone quarried in Dorset. It has long been used in churches and cathedrals. It was formed in the Jurassic/ Cretaceous era. Each bed of Purbeck stone varies in colour and has its own range of fossils within it.

The stone is cut for us to a thickness of 30mm. Other sizes can be quoted for. The surface is honed to smooth finish. The edges can be square or chamfered.
