Raj Green Cobblestone 200x100x40-60mm | Natural Sandstone Setts

Introduce traditional heritage character and heavy-duty structural integrity to your outdoor footprint with premium Raj Green Cobblestone 200x100x40-60mm. Sourced directly from premier quarries and distributed by Paving and Slabs Ltd, these natural Indian sandstone setts feature a highly sought-after blend of forest greens, silvery greys, and warm buff veining. Hand-dressed to a classic 200x100mm brick format, they offer an authentic, time-worn appearance that complements both rustic period properties and modern architectural landscapes across the UK.

Engineered by nature to withstand demanding conditions, our Raj Green cobble setts feature a hand-cropped thickness of 40-60mm. This substantial depth provides the dense material mass required to bear vehicular weight without cracking. The naturally riven, split-face finish leaves a high-friction surface profile that delivers outstanding slip resistance, keeping driveways, garden pathways, and patio steps safe and stable during wet UK seasonal weather cycles.

Traditional Indian Sandstone for Versatile Garden Edging & Paths

The compact 200x100mm format stands as an enduring staple of British landscaping because of its incredible design agility. While large flagstones define wide expanses, these small sandstone blocks give you the freedom to introduce intricate layout detailing. They can be laid in tight herringbone arrangements to interlocking driveways, staggered in running bonds for winding garden paths, or curved to frame circular courtyard seating areas and ornamental water features. Their robust nature also makes them a stellar option for heavy-duty edge restraints, preventing lateral movement along loose gravel drives or turf borders.

Professional Installation Parameters & Upkeep

To secure a flat, subsidence-free surface under vehicular traffic, Raj Green sandstone cobbles must be laid over a robust foundation of 100 to 150mm heavily compacted MOT Type 1 aggregate. Individual setts must be set into a **full continuous wet mortar bed** (typically a 4:1 sharp sand to cement mix). Avoid laying cobbles on loose soil or spot-bedding, as unbacked voids will collapse under tire loads. Joint profiles should be packed tightly using a high-density brush-in jointing compound or mortar to block weed growth.

Ongoing maintenance is very straightforward. Because sandstone is a natural material, it beautifully develops a soft weathered character, but it benefits from routine sweeping to clear damp leaves. We highly recommend applying a quality impregnating stone sealer after installation to reduce porosity, protect against winter frost damage, and repel oil spills.
