Shingle / Gravel for Paths and Walkways

Should you be looking for a walkway, footpath or paved area with a ‘loose’ gravel/shingle finish then there is a wide range of Cotswold Chippings and Shingles, Flints or Quartz Shingles to choose from. These can be levelled out to a 40-50mm depth on a sub-base layer construction of Crushed Limestone or Type I.

The depth of sub-base and size of material used could depend on the site/ground conditions.

If you require a ‘bound’ surface suitable for footpaths and walkways plus being practical for wheelchair, cycles and trolley use the our Self Binding Path Gravel could be an great option.

Paving using blocks or slabs can be achieved using a bedding layer of Grade C / Sharp Sand on a compacted sub-base.

However should planning require you to use a porous paving system - SUDS (Substainable Urban Draining Sysytem), then this can be achieved using open graded crush rock (OGCR) and a 2- 6mm Carboniferous Limestone Chippings as the bedding layer.
