An evolution on courtyard cobbles, our stone block or slim-setts build upon the timeless charm of natural limestone by cutting it into stylish & modern slimline sizes. Each stone is aged and additional antiquing processes are often employed ensuring a choice of looks all with intrinsic limestone characteristics such as fossils, veining and mineral highlights. Developed to work beautifully with both traditional & contemporary gardens, these slimline, aged stone block setts can be used to create a variety of patterns each with its own unique appeal. Attractive options include herringbone & double herringbone, as well as geometric patterns such as mosaic; sometimes known as standard block.
Herringbone: blocks are laid in a staggered, diagonal "V" pattern, creating a visual direction that draws the eye. Popular for its classic, elegant look and the way it can make a space feel larger. Single herringbone (blocks alternating directions) and double herringbone (two blocks in a pair alternating directions) are classic variations.
Mosaic or Standard Block: blocks are laid in a woven pattern, typically with sets of blocks laid perpendicular to each other. Creates a symmetrical and dynamic look. This pattern is possible when the block has a length divisible by its width e.g 20cm x 5cm or 30cm x 7.5cm.

If you are renovating your driveway or any corner in your garden, then you should not miss out on our amazing slim-setts.
Why Choose Outdoor Slim-Setts for Your Project?
The correct paving can transform an area of the tiniest size into something welcoming and elegant. This is precisely what our selection of slim-setts and outdoor stone block tiles offers.
1. Perfect for Traditional & Contemporary Gardens
These stones have been carefully designed to look stunning when used in either historical or modern garden landscapes. The slimmest of their sizes allows them to blend seamlessly into courtyards as well as modern landscaped environments.
2. Stunning Laying Patterns
This type of aged stone block setts allows for the creation of various patterns that each has its own distinct beauty. Some appealing choices are:
Herringbone and Double Herringbone: The blocks are arranged in an interlocked fashion with a staggered pattern like the letter “V,” creating direction with the eyes. This style is preferred for its elegant appearance and ability to create a sense of spaciousness. For herringbone, the blocks are placed in an alternating pattern, whereas for double herringbone, a pair of blocks is used.
Mosaic or Standard Block: This design involves the placement of the blocks in an interweaved manner, where blocks are usually placed at right angles to each other in order to form a symmetrical effect. The block used should be able to divide evenly into its width, e.g., 20 cm x 5 cm.
3. Natural Limestone Character
The setts are made using premium quality limestone in addition to being aged and antiqued properly. In this way, the true features of the stone are brought to life, including the fossil remnants, veining, and mineral deposits.
4. Durable and Long-Lasting
Made of quality natural stone, the tiles are engineered to endure everyday wear and tear and varying climatic conditions. This ensures that their good looks and performance will last many years into the future.
5. Ideal for Decorative Features
Whether you are paving a courtyard, creating a garden pathway, or adding a feature driveway, slim-setts offer the flexibility and visual appeal to make any outdoor area truly special.
