Welcome Back!
As lockdown restrictions are lifted, we're pleased to be able to announce the reopening of our showroom from today (Monday 12th April 2021).
In order to help keep everyone safe whilst visiting, all customers are still required to wear a mask whilst in our showroom. We are also still asking that enquiries are emailed to us wherever possible to sales@cumbrianstone.co.uk as this is the quickest and easiest way to get an accurate quote from our team.

First of all, from everyone at Cumbrian Stone we hope you are well and keeping safe during these highly unusual times. Following the government’s latest announcement and several customer enquires this morning we would like to update our customers as follows:
Ongoing Orders, Collections and Deliveries
Following the government’s announcement on Saturday 31st October, we are writing to reassure our customers that as a manufacturer supplying the construction industry, Cumbrian Stone will continue to produce your orders throughout the up and coming lockdown. We are currently working closely with our supply chain to ensure that any disruptions over the coming weeks are kept to a minimum, and once your order is ready for collection or delivery we will be in touch to arrange this with you. Collections from our site in Penrith are available on an appointment only basis, and we will arrange a suitable time and date for any collections with you once your order is ready for collection.
Should anything change that may impact on your order over the next few weeks we will be back in touch with another update, and we would like to thank you for your patience and continued understanding during these unprecedented circumstances.
New Enquiries
Unfortunately, due to the new restrictions being brought in by the government we have taken the decision to close our showroom from Thursday 5th November until further notice. Our team are still hard at work behind the scenes and are more than happy to deal with any new enquires by phone and email. Please get in touch via sales@cumbrianstone.co.uk or call us on 01768 867867 with any new enquires. Please note that we are currently quoting a lead time of around 10 working weeks from the point of order and due to our current workload we are unable to fit in any new orders before the two week Christmas shutdown.
We always love to see photos of our beautiful fire surrounds once they have been fitted, and this stunning Longridge Sandstone Farmhouse surround doesn't disappoint. We think that this made to measure surround looks fantastic and is sure to be a talking point in our customer's home for many years to come.
It's always nice to see finished orders heading out for delivery, and today we are definitely keeping the team at Metcalfe Plant Hire Ltd busy with deliveries heading out to several of our customers across Cumbria and Dumfries & Galloway.
It's great to see a new project start to take shape, and our team are hard at work cutting our St Bees sandstone for the stunning new development at Chester Road, Manchester. The first few loads of finished stone have already been delivered to site, and with over 1000m2 (250 tons) of finished material required we are looking forward to keeping an eye on this project as it develops.
Chester Road is a high quality development within the historic Castlefield area of Manchester City Centre. The scheme provides 188 apartments across two buildings along with 3 levels of basement car parking providing 166 car parking spaces.
The Fratry Project is a stunning new addition to Carlisle Cathedral. Over the last year we've supplied our Locharbriggs sandstone for the new Fratry arches, Longridge sandstone for the external paving and St Bees sandstone for the restoration work to the existing building. Well done to everyone involved on this fantastic project!

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.

There's always something interesting happening at Cumbrian Stone. Over the last few weeks these stunning sandstone balusters have been precision cut on our CNC saws before having the finishing touches applied by hand to match the original stone templates provided by our customer. These new stones will sit alongside the original balusters, meaning that accuracy when cutting these stones was of the upmost importance!
