RED SANDSTONE

A popular building material used widely throughout the UK, this Sandstone is quarried in Dumfries, Scotland and is characterized by its warm, reddish hue with linear black banding. This stone is an appropriate material for most masonry applications such as cladding and dimensional features, however not suitable for paving in high traffic areas. During my travels to its Scottish quarries, I had the opportunity to admire how this Red Sandstone is applied throughout the local architecture.
