Slate Roofing from The New England Slate Company

One of the most interesting and impressive slate stories of the past decade is that of North Country Black. After decades of sporadic activity, the Glendyne Quarry, sole producer of North Country Black, has grown into the largest single-source slate producer in North America. The list of projects which use this premium ASTM S-1 Black is world-class in both scope and historical significance. Prominent Architects and Historical Preservationists throughout the world are recommending this slate for its color, consistency and longevity. Read about the North Country Black installations on Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Savannah, Georgia and Memorial Hall Tower at Harvard University.
