Lakeland Minerals (part of the Cumbria Waste Group) operates a sand and gravel quarry near Carlisle. At the quarry, we produce a range of sand which is ideal for use in a variety of industries, including farming, sports and construction. Our expert team use a screening process to grade the extracted sand. Each grade of sand is suitable for different purposes making it ideal for livestock bedding, drainage sand and also maintaining sports pitches. The gravel we produce is graded and separated from the quarried sand during the extraction process and it can be provided in a variety of different sizes.
