3. Welsh Slate lodges new life in cemetary
A derelict Grade II listed cemetery lodge in West Yorkshire is being repurposed with the help of a multi-patterned Welsh Slate roof. The Victorian building at Edgerton Cemetery in Huddersfield was built as a home and office for the registrar and superintendent of the new Edgerton Cemetery when it opened in
1855.The original Welsh slates, which had been on the roof since it was built - some 165 years - required replacing like-for-like and so some 850 of Welsh Slate’s Penrhyn Heather Blues now adorn the gothic-style building.
To match the originals, they were cut into five different shapes by two experienced craftsmen from Welsh Slate distributor Yates & Company. The 200m2 of slates were installed over 16 weeks using two copper nails per slate over replacement joists, membrane and battens.
