I love this driveway edging. The gravel border between the driveways goes well with the simplicity of the blocks.

The bricks used for the flowerbeds match the driveway perfectly and the simple greenery gives a minimalist but modern overal feel.

Metal Edging

This metal edging is only slightly visible and almost looks as if it’s part of the slabs. The high quality slabs demand a modern and slick finish and this metal edging really does the job.

Raised Driveway Edging

By creating a raised edging there is a clear distingished border between the driveway and the lawn.  As well as creating a bold border, it retains the lawn area.

Modern Edging

A modern slab is used here and as the edging is from the same range, you wouldn’t even notice it unless you really looked. By rasing the edging, a beautiful driveway edge is created and the large pebbles break up the two levels seemlessly. 

Rumbled Large Curb

Thanks to a rumbled finish, this charming cobble-type paving exhibits a softer surface and also incorporates smooth rounded edges, enhancing the weathered appearance and slightly mottled effect. Offering numerous laying options with its five shades and three sizes, a Woburn Rumbled circle is also adding to the design possibilities.

Block Edging

Another modern block driveway with different coloured edging. The use of different size and style block give more of a contrast and while the design is nice, a more stunning finish could have been achieved by using the same style block as the driveawy but in a different colour.

Creative Design

This patterned block driveway is unusual but well laid. While the red blocks look like the edge, an actual narrow block edge has been used in the same tint as one of the driveway blocks. This gives it a neat finish.
