What corner stone do I need to get for this patio?

Need two corner stones to finish off my patio. My old ones were removed to do an extension and we opted to re-use the old ones to create a new patio. Cant seem to find a suitable corner stone anywhere! Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

If we had something to refer to we might help. How about a photo of the patio stonework

This is the only pic I have. Unfortunately its dirty so the colour isnt clear. I'm more concerned about finding the right size corner piece. I've checked online and cant find anything that would fit.0 -
Take the loose one to a garden centre / building supplies place and see what they have.
Alternatively someone that knows what they are doing will be able to cut 2 or the bricks into something suitable.0 -
Not sure what you mean by "cornerstones".Signature on holiday for two weeks0 -
How thick are they ? They are easy to cut with the right tools

Try somewhere like Travis Perkins or Jewsons. Ask for a "Bull nose external corner kerb stone" in grey. It would be as well as to take one of the existing blocks with you so that you can get a decent colour match.
Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

That looks similar to these.. normally sold for about £1.30+VAT.

Good advice to take the old one down to the merch. As with bricks, the radius can vary. A different colour could be a feature, but the profile should match.FreeBear said:Try somewhere like Travis Perkins or Jewsons. Ask for a "Bull nose external corner kerb stone" in grey.

Thanks thats exactly what I'm looking for! Looks like Buildbase sell them and a few online suppliers. I'll also try my luck at Travis Perkins & JewsonsFreeBear said:Try somewhere like Travis Perkins or Jewsons. Ask for a "Bull nose external corner kerb stone" in grey.
