# Granite Setts & Block Paving **Granite Setts** represent a historic and technically superior solution for driveways, high-traffic pathways, and structural edging. Cut from solid igneous rock, these modular units offer unmatched load-bearing performance and a structured architectural finish that matures gracefully over time. As a cornerstone of the UK’s [stone block paving](/collections/stone-block-paving "stone block paving") tradition, granite setts provide the geometric flexibility required for complex gradients, curves, and heavy-duty thresholds where standard paving slabs may be impractical. QUARRY DIRECT SUPPLY · HIGH STRENGTH · OUTSTANDING QUALITY ## Format Variations and Aesthetic Versatility To accommodate varying design requirements, our collection includes two distinct surface profiles. **[Cropped granite setts](/collections/cropped-granite-setts "cropped granite setts")** feature a naturally split, hand-dressed finish that delivers a traditional, rustic texture with maximum slip resistance. Conversely, **[sawn granite setts](/collections/sawn-granite-setts "sawn granite setts")** are precision-cut with accurate edges to support the crisp, linear jointing demanded by contemporary landscape architecture. By utilising a **direct importer model**, Paving Stone Direct (PSD) ensures that these professional-grade setts maintain consistent dimensional tolerances and mineral density, providing a high-performance alternative to synthetic block paving. ## Integrated Design and Tonal Coordination Achieving tonal continuity is essential for a cohesive landscape scheme. Our granite setts are specifically batched to pair seamlessly with our wider paving collections, including the architectural [Silver Grey](/collections/silver-grey-granite-paving "silver grey granite paving"), the deeper [Blue Grey](/collections/blue-grey-granite-paving "blue grey granite paving"), and the vibrant [Pink](/collections/pink-granite-paving "pink granite paving") or [Yellow](/collections/yellow-granite-paving "yellow granite paving") granite paving. This allows designers to specify setts for drainage channels, decorative borders, or entrance aprons that mirror the primary paving material, ensuring a balanced and visually disciplined result across the entire project. ## Durability for Modern Infrastructure The primary advantage of granite setts lies in their exceptional hardness and resistance to moisture ingress. When installed on a correctly engineered sub-base, they are fully capable of supporting sustained vehicular traffic and resisting the damaging effects of freeze-thaw cycles. Their modular nature allows for natural water run-off and accommodates subtle ground movement, making them a sensible, long-term investment for residential driveways and public realm walkways alike. At PSD, we focus on providing the trade with access to verified, laboratory-tested granite that meets modern performance expectations. By bypassing middle-market layers and managing our own UK stockholding, we deliver trade-quality setts that combine heritage-grade durability with cost-efficient pricing. Whether used as a primary paving surface or a finishing detail, our granite setts deliver a stable, high-strength solution that reflects time-tested paving traditions and superior material authenticity. * * * **Installation Note:** For driveway applications subject to vehicle over-run, granite setts should be laid on a **full mortar bed with a high-strength jointing compound**. To ensure a permanent bond, particularly with sawn variants, we recommend the application of a slurry bonding primer to the base of the setts prior to laying. ## Products in this collection - [Granite Setts Cobbles Silver Grey Cropped 100x100x50 From £45.26/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/silver-grey-granite-setts-115) - 161.51 GBP - [Granite Setts Cobbles Silver Grey Cropped 200x100x50 From £45.26/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/silver-grey-granite-setts-215) - 161.51 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Silver Grey Edging Stone 200x100x50mm From £46.89/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-silver-grey-215) - 2.4 GBP - [Granite Setts Cropped Yellow Gold 100x100x50 From £48.99/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/yellow-granite-setts-cropped-10105) - 185.24 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Mid Grey Flamed 200x100x50mm From £58.11/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-blue-grey-20105) - 2.75 GBP - [Yellow Gold Granite Setts Sawn Tumbled 200x100x50mm From £54.69/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/yellow-granite-tumbled-setts-20105) - 166.69 GBP - [Rose Pink Sawn Granite Setts Tumbled 200x100x50mm From £55.79/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/pink-granite-tumbled-setts-20105) - 165.79 GBP - [Granite Setts Cobbles Yellow Cropped 200x100x50 From £48.99/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/yellow-cropped-granite-setts-20105) - 185.24 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Mid Grey Flamed 100x100x50mm From £58.09/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/flamed-granite-setts-mid-grey-10105) - 2.75 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Silver Grey Edging Stones 100x100x50mm From £46.89/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-flamed-granite-setts-silver-115) - 2.4 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Yellow Gold Edging Stone 200x100x50mm From £51.29/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-yellow-gold-20105) - 2.4 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Rose Pink Flamed 200x100x50 From £53.29/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-pink-20105) - 163.29 GBP - [Sawn Tumbled Granite Setts Edging Stone Blue Grey 200x100x30mm From £45.60/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/tumbled-granite-edging-setts-213) - 171.19 GBP - [Sawn Tumbled Granite Edging Setts Blue Grey Black 100x100x30mm From £45.60/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/tumbled-granite-setts-paving) - 171.19 GBP - [Blue Grey Granite Setts Sawn & Flamed 200x100x30 From £44.83/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-blue-grey-213) - 203.09 GBP - [Granite Cobbles Setts Cropped Blue Grey 200x100x50 From £59.99/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/mid-grey-granite-setts-215) - 189.99 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Silver Grey Edging Stone 200x100x30mm From £38.99/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-silver-grey-213) - 269.96 GBP - [Sawn Granite Setts Silver Grey Edging Stone 100x100x30mm From £38.99/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/sawn-granite-setts-silver-grey-113) - 128.0 GBP - [Granite Cobbles Setts Cropped Mid Grey 100x100x50 From £39.99/m2](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/products/mid-grey-granite-setts-115) - 129.0 GBP --- > Source: [Paving Slabs Direct](https://www.pavingslabsdirect.co.uk/collections/granite-setts) > Updated: 2026-07-15
