Doddington Sandstone
Doddington
Doddington Quarry is located in the village of Doddington between Wooler and Berwick-upon-Tweed. It has worked regularly since at least 1950 and most probably for more than 150 years before this. There are good reserves of stone available.
Doddington is a fine to medium grained stone, light to deep purple in colour with the occasional rust coloured markings.
This stone should be suitable for use in most aspects of construction including paving, load bearing masonry and ashlar.
