Stonemasons working newly quarried millstone grit. Unique stone fireplaces, mullions etc, for period houses and newbuild. ROCK END MOOR DELPH was re opened in 1986 to supply stone for the restoration of early Pennine houses, as gritstone had been out of use since the late 19th century. This was mainly due to the difficulty of working such an abrasive material using the newly developed machinery, the industry favouring more evenly textured types of sandstone.
