Established in 1922, Gosford Quarries is the name synonymous with sandstone in Australia. We are widely recognised for our expertise in all areas of quarrying, processing and site installation of natural sandstone.

The first quarry and processing plant was located at Gosford on the Central Coast of New South Wales. The company was called 'The Hawkesbury Sandstone Co.' and the popular sandstone of the era was 'Gosford Grey'. The quarry possessed a vast deposit of uniformly grey coloured sandstone situated on a prominent hill almost in the centre of the town ( which has subsequently grown into a city ). The company grew to prominence from the 1930's until World War 2 under the directorship of a well known local identity Mr Henry Parry.

In 1975 Mr Andrew Davis purchased and re-organised the company to form the present 'Gosford Quarries' group of companies.

The processing plant was upgraded and moved to the quarry site at Somersby to allow for future expansion. Since then new deposits have been proven and added to the portfolio of Gosford Quarries sandstones.

During the last 20 years major construction and restoration work have contributed to the companys success with projects like Governor Phillip Tower and the Commemorative Museum winning international architectural awards for excellence.

Gosford Quarries is also the major supplier to the Australasian retail market for a wide range of domestic applications such as feature walls in houses, paving, pool surrounds and general landscape work. These markets are serviced from retail and storage outlets in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

The company owns and operates seven Quarries throughout Australia with an annual output of approximately 8,000 m3 per year, with proven reserves in excess of 200,000m3.
