NewBasfordlad 3,599 Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 That must be one of the most expensive walls ever, They look like Welsh blue to me and go for very good money down this way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted February 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 One has to be, living up here! Nearest proper town is Inverness - 107 miles away! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
banjo48 928 Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 I'd reiterate with newbasfordlad, they would be well worth a drive with a truck to pick them up and worth a few bob to someone doing a renovation or restricted new build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are Ballachulish slates from teh West Coast of Scotland quarries - I believe they are now closed and no longer available as new. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
