We wash all our limestone in our quarry at Potgate to produce our decorative single sized materials as well as washed cleans for drainage purposes. Got any questions about our products just give us a call or visit our website www.lightwaterquarries.com 01765 635435

A photo from when the wash plant was new! I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of tonnes have been washed through this plant now to make our beautiful clean limestone...Any one fancy a guess?

Thinking of putting some stone on your driveway? Our advice is to have a look at lots of different types of material before you decide as most people prefer the initial look of a rounded gravel but once it is down and driven on a rounded stone tends to roll around and you have to scrape it back into place more often! Have a look at a more angular #gravel or #limestone as this will lock into place keeping your driveway looking smart all year with no maintenance. We are lucky in North Yorkshire to have both local limestone and gravel giving customers a great range of choice when it comes to local stone. Visit our website to have a look at the products on offer to see which one would work best for you. #DIYtips www.lightwaterquarries.com

Been making more collages of our favourite images! #quarrylife

Our new Doosan excavator hard at work in the quarry at Potgate working hard along side our loading shovel and dumper! Once the rock has been blasted from the quarry face the excavator, loading shovel and dumper can get to work in order to start the process of making some lovely clean aggregates for our customers!

Busy day in the #quarry today and a beautiful blue sky to work under! Love the #quarrylife! Hopefully all our hard work pays off keeping our customers happy! It's all about service and quality for us!

Getting a bit arty with the camera and snapping a picture of the rock at the quarry face before it goes to be crushed #quarrylife

Our new Doosan excavator arrived today so we welcomed it here and then waved goodbye to our old machine! More pictures to follow when the new machine has been set to work at the quarry face!
