Leicester — local materials and cleaning considerations

Mountsorrel granodiorite — a distinctive pink-grey coarsely crystalline igneous rock from the Mountsorrel quarries north of Leicester. Used in Leicester's Victorian civic buildings, road kerbs and street paving. Hard, durable and silica-containing — cutting and grinding generates RCS dust requiring H-Class extraction.
Swithland slate — distinctive dark green-purple slate from the Swithland quarries in Charnwood Forest. Used in Leicester and Leicestershire roof tiles and architectural details. Contains mica and silica — cutting dust requires appropriate extraction.
Red brick — the dominant building material of Leicester's Victorian housing. Standard medium-pressure cleaning. Runoff must not reach the Soar under Environmental Permitting.
