The angular shapes lock together creating a much stronger surface that will perform better than more rounded aggregates. As a rule of thumb use 20mm aggregates from driveway applications and small for pathways and borders.

Shingle and Gravel are essentially the same product. A small rounded and angular stone quarried or dredged from the sea and called either shingle or gravel.

We would always recommend using aggregates of either 14mm or 20mm in size for a domestic driveway, anything larger can be kick up onto cars, which can cause damage to bodywork, and anything small can be difficult to walk on and will get stuck in your shoes or car tyres.
