Armour Stone
Rugged, Beautiful and Natural Armour Stone
At Legends, we pride ourselves on the ability to offer you the highest quality products from local sources. We supply three types of armour stone, Buckhorn, Flamboro and Orillia, boasting different tones and patterns reminiscent of their unique quarry locations.
Make a Statement with Buckhorn
Our understated elephant grey Buckhorn armour stone often displays an exposed-to-the-elements look increasingly sought after by landscapers today. It chips cleanly and cuts well, making it as easy to work with for amateur landscapers as it is for experienced professionals. The rock from this quarry is deposited between layers of seaweed, and is excavated easily – no blasting, no damage to the rock.
Flamboro Adds Texture to Your Yard
Flamboro armour stone is best known for its rich chocolate brown colour and horizontal sediment lines, lending exceptional character. It is quarried easily and can be stacked comfortably without any alterations out of the quarry.
Be Bold with Orillia
The light grey tones are what characterize Orillia armour stone. Similar to Flamboro, Orillia armour stone can be stacked to build retaining walls to protect your landscape as well as create eye-catching features.
USED BEST AS...
Armour stone is ideal for use as an erosion control measure or surrounding the shoreline of a large water feature. It will resist erosion readily due to its high density (around 175 lbs per cubic foot).
