A Leicester-based contractor need to match existing paving on a local project. Here's what is down at the moment....

...any ideas? It's 450x600 and about 40mm thick, pressed concrete.

He thinks it's similar to Eaton's Milford but I'm not sure.

Looks very similar to some wyresdale flags that i recentley laid but they were 450x450, but otherwise exact with the straight arissed edges and 38mm thick.

I thought Wyresdale, but I don't think they get as far south as Leicester.

It's probably a generic mould and may be manufactured by a numebr of companies.

looks like a generic buff riven to me ,the size is unusual but any number of small slab makers might have made this i.e. fencrete or chiltern concrete
