Stoke Quarry Extension

We propose to extend Stoke Quarry in our Moons Hill Complex, ensuring we have continued access to the distinctive stone on which our success is built. This will safeguard our operations until 2057, protecting local jobs and helping us contribute to a vibrant local economy.

The application has now been submitted, please see below helpful links for more information :

Moons Hill Solar 

We have applied for permission to install 1.9MW of ground-mounted solar panels in a field to the south west of Moons Hill Quarry. This will decarbonise our operations and make us more energy self-sufficient – helping us deliver our 2040 Net Zero target.
