ABOUT US

Tordown Granite, produce a range of granite products including memorials and monuments, house name signs, quoins, lintels, symbol stones and carved symbol stones as well as birdbaths, walling stone and landscaping garden features

Tordown Granite is a small privately owned granite business operating from Tordown Quarry in St Breward, in the heart of the ancient Cornish granite country. 

For centuries Tordown produced Cornwall's finest silver-grey granite until the quarry finally shut its gates in the early 1990's.

Now, once again the sound of granite being worked rings out from Tordown Quarry as the waste of centuries past is recycled and given a new use. All our granite is 100% pure Cornish, and of the highest quality. Most of it is silver grey, although we do have reserves of the honey brown granite, primarily used for repairs to older properties

Whereas in the past our granite was used in many famous projects, including construction of the Britannia Naval College in Dartmouth, today it is more commonly used in the landscaping of gardens and grounds. 

Our 100% Cornish granite is used in a number of ways, particularly the following: 

  • Standing stones
  • Random walling stone
  • Monoliths
  • Rockery stone
  • Feature stone
  • Security boulders

We provide hedgers, wallers, landscape gardeners, sculptors and designers with the raw materials for their projects. 

 The gate to Tordown Quarry complete with the interesting spelling!

Please note that we do not cut, split saw or drill stone. 

The quarry is not always open but can always be open by appointment so phone before you set out to visit it. The number is 01208 850885.
