The popular Hollington sandstone in North Staffordshire has three variants, red, cream and the mottled red-cream blend and like Runcorn Sandstone, is part of the Lower Triassic Sherwood group and again, the history of quarrying in the area goes back to Roman times. In addition to the working and dressing of local stone, significant quantities of other valued building stone from across the UK is imported for dressing as part of the local stone industry. Hollington stone itself has been used across the UK, perhaps most famously at Lichfield cathedral and in both the old and the new Coventry cathedrals. There are currently five quarries at Hollington, all the site of extensive present-day quarrying of varying scale and there are many other older quarries now largely enveloped by woodland.
