pbrookes 450 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Different areas tend to use different sized slates. 16 x 10 are common in yorkshire/ Derbyshire. If they are Welsh and not Spanish and have not been painted with tar and are in decent Nick a reclamation yard will probably give you around £400 per 1000. Doubt they would pick 300 up though as there is only enough to do about 10m2. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 27,434 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 If they're natural welsh slate up to a quid, advertise on eBay or ring a few of the local roofing company's. Even if you get 50p a slate it's a nice touch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
