daitheplant I'm just wondering if you can help on this one.
I have been trying for some time now to source a few walling blocks to match the retaining wall here which was damaged.
i did get offered a pallet load but I only need three blocks and have tried every builders merchants for about 10 miles with no luck.
I believe the blocks are called 'Antique Walling' and the colour is,'Abbey Storm'.
The pic below shows the type of block required.
I might try a request on freecycle but never seem to have much luck with them.

Of course if anyone can help here I would be grateful.

I'll get around to it eventually

Cheers Dai, They do appear to have what I need. Unfortunately it is at Farnborough.
i will contact them tomorrow to find out cost etc. Just a bit on the far side to go all that way for 3 blocks.
Thanks again though Dai.

You should have a Bradstone stockist near you. If they don`t have them in stock they will be able to get them for you.

Nearest B & Q is miles away but will check with them anyway Cheers.

Meanwhile the chap who is doing the wall got a similar block but in yellow so after it is done I can put a cement coat over it to help match up. assuming the rain stops of course.
