Granite Boulder GB60 Water Feature Case Study

Granite Boulder GB60 Water Feature Case Study features a stunning low level granite boulder sourced direct from the quarry in North Wales. Green and grey tones deepen in colour when wet with natural contours throughout. Slate Chippings were chosen to compliment the larger stone and ease the transition in size between boulder and ground level. Larger setts frame the chippings and contain them to prevent them spreading. Smaller 20mm gravel sits outside this and framed by a larger square formation of setts. This instantly creates a calming and relaxing environment with the sound of running water drowning out any nearby noise pollution. Welsh Slate Water Features were proud to be involved in this project and supplied everything the client needed to operate this as a water feature. This included the core drilled boulder, a large reservoir pack, including pump, hose, clips and flow valve regulator. Finsihed off with two handy bags of slate chippings verying between 20 and 60mm. If you’re considering or working on a similar project and need any help or advice then please do not hesitate to contact the office and we will be happy to help and guide you on choosing the right slate boulder or water feature for your project.

Buy Garden Boulders

We have a number of large stone boulders in stock which can all be cut, dressed and if applicable, engraved with house names, number or could be used as memorial stones. This is our largest and most colourful and varied stock ever. Not all of our stock has been added to the website as we can constantly visiting the quarry this time of year to restock on more stone. We also convert stones into bird baths by carving a bowl in the top to contain water. A recent example is Stone Bird Bath SBB13. Alternatively Stone Boulder SB52 could work as a focal point or natural garden seat. Contact us with your requirements.
