Welsh Slate is a metamorphosed sedimentary rock of the Ordovician and Cambrian geological series being 500 million years old.
The quarries of Snowdonia produce two main colours of slate - Heather Blue and Blue grey.
This traditional Welsh cottage, believed to date back to the thirteenth century has been re-slated with extra heavy blue grey slates to retain its original character and small random sized “peggies” maintain the original feature of this period round house.
