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!

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!
