What are cropped setts?

Cropped setts have been used as paving materials since Roman times. These unique stones are renowned for their rustic charm and aged appearance, along with their slip-resistant nature. All sides of cropped setts are trimmed, giving them a more traditional look. They are perfect for use in pathways, driveways, and other areas requiring a durable yet attractive surface.
