At James Gogarty Stone, we can supply Ross limestone from our own quarry at Ross, Co. Meath. The limestone from Ross was used extensively in the construction of many landmark buildings like the cathedrals at Mullingar and Cavan, Kylemore Abbey in Galway and various churches, banks, council buildings and bridges. It is an ideal stone to consider for any restoration and renovation project. When the limestone is combined with the sophisticated CNC machines in our factory, any project can be realised with precision. The stone is extracted with modern machinery and processes to ensure minimum waste and maximum potential.
Recently, Ross limestone has been processed into tiles and has been well received both in Ireland and in Europe. When the polishing and brushing process has been applied, it brings out the unique earthy tones and colours in the limestone. Interior designers will love the way it blends into sophisticated schemes and concepts.
Of course, Ross limestone can be applied to any architectural requirement. It is a very popular choice for window cills, quoin stones, wall and pier capping, door surrounds and random walling. It is being used extensively now for this purpose. We have large stocks of split stone in bags ready for immediate delivery. The Ross limestone can have the authentic antique look by surface finishes like fine and coarse chiselling, which will never look out of place when fitted beside original stonework in old buildings.
It is also in demand for monumental use especially for traditional designs in country cemeteries, where a hand made and carved monument will always sit easily with older monuments and designs.
You are most welcome to visit the quarry where you can see for yourself Ross limestone in its natural form and we can discuss your project and ideas. We can provide samples of the stone in various finishes. You can be assured of our full attention and a quality service at all times.
