Block Driveway and Porcelain, Oxfordshire. The New Driveway Company

Mr and Mrs Lane’s old herringbone block drive in Kennington, Oxfordshire needed to be replaced. We worked with the Lanes to design a beautiful rumbled block paved driveway with a porcelain path, then got stuck in.

For the main driveway we used Woburn Rumbled Autumn block, and chose porcelain slabs for the pathway and front step. The Lanes wanted to add a touch of flair to their drive with some tasteful lighting, so we laid conduit under the drive first, then installed the lights into the step.

They love the contrast between the path and the paving, and the lights in the step make the driveway look stunning.

Mr and Mrs Lane were very happy with their new driveway – here’s what they had to say:

“From our first enquiry to The New Driveway Company, we were very impressed by their planning, their professionalism and the pleasant attitude of everyone we dealt with throughout the project. In our view it has enhanced our property and would recommend the company to anyone considering a new drive.”
