Timber products have always been an important element in garden design to harmonise effectively with natural surroundings the timber needs to be aged and weathered, both in colour and more importantly, profile and texture.

New timber, even rough sawn and stained, is incapable of displaying the character weather-beaten graining that is needed to make it look as though it really belongs.

Stonemarket's Timberstone range reproduces old boardwalks, railway sleepers, timber setts, sawn branches and cross-cut logs in high strength concrete that is less slippery than wood and will never rot, warp, splinter or need preservatives. The realism of our Timberstone is such that even when handling the product, many people find it hard to believe that it is a reproduction. Every piece is full of finely detailed character and is available in a choice of two colour effects: Coppice Brown replicates the shades of damp woodland, while Driftwood portrays the bleaching effect of exposure to sunlight and moving water.
