Hello,

First time poster, so go easy. Although I have lurked for some time and found this to be an excellent source of information.

I am trying to find a source of a particular type of path edging, maybe it no longer exists. It is a round top edging which looks like it has been cast from a pea gravel, or similar, and concrete. I have slabs which are similar, cam with house, and would like to have a matching edging rather than a smooth concrete round top.

Any other suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks
Andrew

Have you got a picture?

It sounds like it is simply an exposed aggregate concrete edging.

Thanks for your help guys, yes the picture which is half way down that page is the sort of thing I am looking for in a 50mm round top version.

Are they usually refered to as exposed aggregate, is that what I need to be searching for?

Any ideas about suppliers?

Thanks
Andrew
