This colour is achieved through skilled control of the burning process to produce the traditional naturally occuring random hues of authentic multi-coloured clay tiles; colours that cannot be replicated artificallly with stains and pigments.

Sandfaced

The red/blue blend tiles are an attractive complement to the brickwork (seen below).  The roof is broken up by the use of ornamental club tiles - in horizontal bands and a diamond shape between the dormers.  Ornamental tiles tend to look best when used in odd numbers of courses such as 3 or 5.
