I have old concrete paths in my back garden that I was intending to replace with clay cobbles - specifically Marshalls Ashbourne 56x56x60. However, Marshalls no longer supply them and said they have sold that part of their business to Hanson. Unfortunately Hanson don't seem to supply them either.

Does anyone know of a similar clay cobble I could use?

Thanks.

The nearest equivalent is the stuff from Baggeridge (now Weinerberger) but the sizes and colours are completely different. 50x50, 75x75 and 100x100 and the Blended Red is closest in colour to the sorely missed Ashbourne red multi (which I have in my own back garden).

They won't be easy to find, as no merchant would normally carry them, but if you speak to the UK sales manager, Mike Jepps, he should be able to arrange for a local merchant to ship some in with their next load of facing brick.

There's no point in me giving you the website url, as the website is truly shite with buggerall information on pavers and even fewer photies. Weinerberger don't seem to appreciate the paving business and only want to flog facing bricks.
