Reclaimed Blue Lias Stone

Blue Lias Walling Stone.
Blue lias dates back to the early Jurassic period, and is between 195-205 million years old. It is made from layers of compressed shale and limestone, and is renowned for its ammonite fossils. The blue-grey colour occurs as a result of its high iron content, enclosed for the most part in pyrite crystals.
Commonly used in areas local to its source, blue lias can be seen in the neighbouring towns of Glastonbury, Somerton, Street and Ilchester. It features some brown banding which weathers to a pale yellow/grey.
