- Yorkstone abstract "Yorkstone is a term for a variety of sandstone, specifically from quarries in Yorkshire that have been worked since mediaeval times, but now applied generally. Yorkstone is a tight grained, Carboniferous sedimentary rock. The stone consists of quartz, mica, feldspar, clay and iron oxides.Known for its hard wearing and durable qualities Yorkstone has been used in a wide array of building, construction and landscaping applications around the world for many years. In Yorkshire, split stones called thackstone (Scots thack, English thatch) were employed as roofing. Thackstones were also a common detail in the Peak District. Although most often associated with thatched buildings, they were part of a local tradition of stone slate roofing. Individual stones were placed in the wall above a roof, on a chimney stack or an adjoining building, to throw water away from the wall and protect the junction of the wall and stone roof, which was commonly mortared rather than lead-flashed. Thackstones above a roof may be placed into the wall either horizontally (similar to crow steps), or slanting in line with the roof below. Although now mostly replaced by the cheaper alternative of lead flashing, there still remain http://www.highpeak.gov.uk/sites/default/files/documents/pages/Whitfield%20Appraisal%20%28Sep%202013%29%20COMPLETE%20PDF%20FOR%20WEB%20SITE.pdfa number of examples in the High Peak as shown in the Whitfield and Simmondley Conservation Appraisal and the Padfield Conservation Appraisal [1] [2] Water-tabling is the name given to a detail similar to “thackstones” where long, thin slips of stone are used at the base of a chimney to throw water away from the junction of the stack and roof. This practice was widespread within the Peak District, possibly because there were so many stonestacks, and relatively few brick chimneys, which tend to be later replacements.The traditional London paving stone has been York stone.Yorkstone is popular in both new construction and restoration. The colour of Yorkstone depends on the minerals within its makeup and differs throughout the quarries from which it is mined. Newly quarried Yorkstone is usually available as slabs for paving, setts and walling stones. Reused Yorkstone paving, salvaged from demolished sites, is valued for its naturally weathered surfaces.".
