What is Rippon Buff sandstone?

Rippon Buff sandstone is one of the most popular natural stones in the UK for a reason—its warm, sun-washed colouring works with almost any garden style, from a traditional cottage patio to a modern courtyard. It's supplied in blocks, slabs and tiles, and its consistent, fine grain also makes it a good choice for custom mosaic and pattern work, not just standard paving.
