The
Delabole Slate Quarry has been in existence in some form or
other for about 1000 years. In 1841, several small independent
quarries combined to create The Old Delabole Slate Company,
This became a limited liability company in 1898.
In more recent years the company has moved from corporate hands
back to being a locally owned private Cornish company, The
Delabole Slate Company Ltd.
Owned and managed by the directors, The Delabole Slate Company
Ltd is run on a "family firm" basis and currently
employs around 40 people.
We are specialist producers of bespoke and traditional slate
products for the building and home improvement sectors, offering
a friendly service to both the public and trade.
