A little post about the stone we are using, it is Limestone which is quarried locally at Once a week quarry near Bakewell, the limestone is millions of years old and is sometimes called Derbyshire Fossil Limestone and you can see why in the first photo. The picture show the fossils of the sea life from this period such as Crinoids, Brachiopod’s, Corals and occasionally a Sharks Tooth !! The third picture is where the stone has been polished, and really highlights the fossils in amazing detail.
