Granite Setts Cobbles Yellow Cropped 200x100x50 From £48.99/m2

Yellow granite cropped setts cobbles 200 x 100 x 50 mm are suitable for both domestic and commercial use. They are ideal for edging patios, creating driveway borders, forming footpaths, and enhancing heavy-traffic walkways, streetscapes, piazza markets and public paving areas.

Note: Granite setts are traditionally laid with 12–15 mm joints. Prices are based on the net stone area, not the inflated laid area. For 200×100×50 mm, 8 m² net covers roughly 8.8–9.0 m² when laid.

These yellow granite setts feature a cropped, naturally textured finish that brings a warm, traditional character to any landscape. With the inherent strength and durability of granite, they provide a long-lasting paving solution with a solid and dependable appearance.

Direct Overseas Owned Granite Quarry

Choose yellow granite cropped setts for their warm colouring, traditional aesthetic and enduring strength. They remain a reliable option for both modern and classic paving designs.

Important Note: For split-crate orders, please be aware that setts are stacked loosely rather than neatly arranged. This method improves handling efficiency and helps keep costs down while ensuring the stones remain intact during transport. If you prefer neater packaging, we recommend ordering a full crate.

Please also note that granite setts typically have a rough surface. Due to the low margin and industry customs, setts may not be thoroughly washed before packing. If you expect the same level of cleanliness as paving slabs, we advise against ordering stone setts.

We also supply Yellow granite cropped setts 100×100×50 mm and Yellow granite tumbled setts 200×100×50 mm .

Are Granite Setts Suitable for Driveways?

Yes, granite setts are well suited for driveways due to their strength and durability. They are one of the most reliable materials used in block paving, capable of withstanding regular vehicle use and commonly applied in both domestic and commercial settings across the UK.

What Sizes and Thicknesses Are Available?

Typical granite sett sizes include 100 x 100 and 100 x 200, along with mixed size project packs that create a more traditional and varied appearance.

In terms of thickness, 50 mm is the most commonly used option for residential applications. It is well suited for standard driveways and can comfortably support cars and light commercial vehicles, including vans and small trucks, when installed correctly on a full mortar bed with a suitable sub-base. This makes 50 mm setts the typical choice for domestic paving projects where both durability and cost efficiency are important.

For heavier-duty applications, thicker setts such as 80 mm or 100 mm are used. These are generally specified for public areas, commercial yards, access roads, or locations subject to frequent heavy vehicle traffic. The additional thickness provides greater load-bearing capacity and long-term structural stability under sustained pressure.

In addition, thinner granite setts options, typically around 30 mm and usually supplied as sawn setts, are more suitable for light-use areas. These are commonly used in patios, garden paths, edging, and as decorative borders or dividing lines within patio slab layouts. While they retain the visual character of traditional granite setts, they are not intended for load-bearing applications.

How Much Do Granite Setts Cost and What Affects the Price?

Granite setts are generally more expensive than standard paving slabs due to both the material and the labour required for installation. Prices typically vary depending on size, thickness and finish.

Smaller setts require more units per square metre and more jointing work, which can increase overall installation cost. Pricing is also influenced by factors such as groundwork preparation and layout complexity. For a detailed breakdown, see Granite Setts Cost per m².

How Should Granite Setts Be Installed?

Granite setts should be laid on a well-compacted MOT Type 1 sub-base with a full mortar bed. For sawn grid size setts, applying a slurry primer to the underside is recommended to improve bonding and reduce the risk of movement. Proper jointing is important to keep the setts stable and ensure long-term performance. For a full step-by-step guide, see How to Lay Granite Setts for a Driveway.

Do Granite Setts Require Sealing or Maintenance?

Granite setts generally do not require sealing. Routine maintenance is simple, usually involving sweeping and occasional cleaning to keep the surface in good condition.
