ashburton marble fire surround
FOR SALE : VICTORIAN ASHBURTON MARBLE FIRE SURROUND
The iron oxide minerals often give the stone a distinct pink colouration which can appear in many shades through to dark red and maroon. The colouring together with the various greys and almost black, the spectacular fossils and the ability of the stone to take a polish have led to its extensive use for decorative work as 'Ashburton Marble'. This includes stonework in cladding and flooring as well as in monuments and memorials. It is the only 'marble' recently produced in Britain and it was an important export, to South Africa, Hong Kong and particularly to the United States where it is seen in public buildings including the President Roosevelt Memorial.
