Garden and Lawn Edging Stones

Edging stones are used to define the edge of a paved or landscaped area and help keep lawns, gravel, planting areas and paving visually separated. Depending on the design, edging can be subtle and nearly level with the surrounding paving, or raised slightly to create a stronger boundary.

For traditional natural stone projects, granite paving, setts, kerbs and edging provide one of the hardest and most durable options. Granite setts are particularly useful where a small modular stone is needed for straight or curved borders, while larger granite kerbs and edging stones can form a stronger and more substantial edge. PSD currently carries both sawn granite setts and dedicated granite edging and kerb products. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="1"}

Granite Setts and Edging Stones

Granite setts can be used for much more than full driveway paving. Smaller formats such as 100 x 100 and 200 x 100 are commonly used as patio borders, path edging, driveway detailing and separation lines between different paving materials. Sawn and flamed granite gives a cleaner and more modern edge, while cropped granite creates a more traditional natural stone appearance.

For heavier edging applications, granite kerbs and larger edging stones provide more depth and mass. They are useful for driveways, changes in level, pathway edges and landscaping where a more substantial retaining edge is required.

Sandstone Cobbles and Setts for Edging

Sandstone Cobbles and Setts are particularly suitable for traditional gardens, cottage-style landscaping and natural stone patios. Their warmer colours and riven or tumbled surfaces work well around sandstone paving, gravel paths and planting areas.

Common sandstone formats include 100 x 100 x 50 and 200 x 100 x 50 for general paving and edging. Narrower 200 x 50 x 40 setts are especially useful where a slimmer border is required around lawns, patios or garden beds. PSD also offers hand-cut and tumbled sandstone cobbles, where softened edges create a more aged and established appearance. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="2"}

Limestone Cobbles and Setts

Limestone paving and cobbles provide another natural stone option for edging and small-format landscaping. Black Limestone and other limestone setts can be used around patios, garden paths, courtyard areas and mixed paving layouts where a darker or more traditional natural stone border is wanted.

Limestone edging works particularly well where the main patio already uses limestone, but it can also be used as a contrast against sandstone, porcelain or gravel. PSD currently groups limestone cobbles and setts as part of its wider limestone paving range. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="3"}

Porcelain Edging Setts and Planks

Porcelain edging gives a cleaner and more controlled appearance than most natural stone. Porcelain setts and edging planks are useful for modern patios, straight lawn borders, path edges and transitions between porcelain paving and gravel or planting areas.

Smaller porcelain edging setts can be used to create a repeated border line, while longer planks create a more continuous edge. Darker formats such as black basalt-style porcelain edging can also be used as a contrasting border around lighter paving. PSD currently lists porcelain edging setts alongside its wider paving products. :chatgpt-content-reference{index="4"}

Where Edging Stones Can Be Used

• Lawn Edging – To create a clear boundary between grass and paving, gravel or planting areas.
• Patio Edging – To finish the outside edge of sandstone, granite, limestone or porcelain paving.
• Path Edging – To define garden paths and help retain adjacent gravel or soil.
• Driveway Borders – Granite setts and kerbs can create stronger perimeter or contrast lines.
• Gravel Separation – Edging stones can help keep loose gravel away from lawns and planting beds.
• Decorative Borders – Contrasting colours or materials can be used to frame a paved area.

Choosing the Right Edging Stone

The right product depends on the style of the project and how strong the edge needs to be. Granite is normally chosen where strength, sharp edges and long-term durability are important. Sandstone gives a softer and more traditional natural appearance. Limestone works well with classic natural stone paving, while porcelain is commonly selected for cleaner and more contemporary garden designs.

Setts are especially useful when you need smaller units for curves, corners or detailed border work. Longer edging stones or kerbs are better where a stronger continuous line is needed or where the edging also has to retain paving, gravel or a change in level.

Edging and setts are not always used in the same way. Small setts are often chosen mainly for decorative borders or curved garden edges, while thicker kerbs and dedicated edging stones can also provide more structural restraint. The correct bedding and support should suit the product size and the intended use.
