Patios use durable and hard wearing materials which will be able to withstand extreme weather. It’s important to consider the drainage of your patio, as heavy rain will need to drain away to an area that can absorb the water. A professional will be able to design and lay a patio to do this.

The white sandstone in the Clynelish quarry comes from the Brora Development, of the Callovian and also Oxfordian stages (previously Middle Oolite) of the Mid-Late Jurassic. Stone from the quarry was made use of in the building of London Bridge, Liverpool Cathedral as well as Dunrobin Castle. When in operation, the coalmine was one of the most northerly coalmine in the UK. Brora was the starting point in the north of Scotland to have electricity thanks to its wool market. This distinction triggered the neighborhood nickname of "Electric City" at the time. Brora also houses a baronial style clock tower which is a war memorial.
