so the mrs is pestering me to get my a*se in gear and sort our backyard out, been in the house for other a year and with the arrival of a little on and working every hour possible i have been putting it off. now the little one is almost walking she wants it doing.

so i was thinking of doing it in these. just wanted to know what they are called, setts cobbles etc? so i can study on the main site. full mortar bed then romex was my thinking. area i'm doing is only about 8m2 as the other bit is flagged.

we used some round a hottub on a job and i liked the look,

Morning Giles they look like Marshalls Haworth moor sandstone split and tumbled setts 100x100x50 in Autumn Bronze.

there not marshalls, i know where i got them from so there are called setts then?

there was quite a variation in thickness from 30mm to 70mm

Sorry I couldn't be anymore help if you're stuck then the Marshalls setts are a dead ringer and probably easier to lay.

global setts
TBh I am a little peeved with them right now,we had 2 patio packs last week and some of the larger units are rubbish
