Notes
From the initial freeze-thaw process that enables the stone to be riven into thin sheets for roofing, to the chipping and dressing of each unique slate ready for installation, Collyweston roofing slate production is an art of its own even before the slate is laid on a roof.
Finished
No
Weathered Samples
The town of Stamford, where many roofs feature Collyweston.
Suitability
Roofing slates
Recent Use Samples
In and around Stamford are many new builds and extensions featuring Collyweston roofs. Recently King's College, Cambridge, has used 151 roofing squares of it. A roofing square is the amount of slate needed to cover 100 square feet of roof, taking account of the overlaps.
