Kirkstone, specialists in Cumbrian slate and imported architectural stone, has supplied natural silver-green slate flooring on an extension and renovation project on the Samuel Lindow ΢Ȧ at the University of Central Lancashire’s Cumbrian campus

Specified by HM Architecture, Kirkstone’s slate was used to create a distinctive reception and formal function area that was also easy to maintain with hardwearing characteristics.

The unique markings and shading of the slate provide a contrast to the oak panelling used in the interior.

The new building achieved a BREEAM rating of “very good”.
