At Harding Stoneyard, we’re proud to bring over 50 years of stone expertise to Cork, with a brand new display area now open in Little Island. Whether you’re renovating your garden, building your dream home, or simply gathering inspiration, our Cork yard is designed to give you a hands-on experience with the very best in natural and porcelain stone products.
We’ve helped thousands of homeowners, architects, and tradespeople find the right material for their project, and now we’re thrilled to offer that same level of support and product range locally in Cork.
Why Visit Our Display Yard in Cork?
This isn’t just a showroom, it’s an evolving outdoor display built to help you see, touch, and compare materials in a real-life setting. What makes it different?
Newly developed, with the most current and in-demand product lines
Built to showcase real applications, so you can visualise your project clearly
Easy to access for homeowners across Cork, Limerick, Kerry and Clare
Supported by a knowledgeable, family-run team who care about every project
We opened in Cork because we saw a genuine need for better access to premium stone. Our Kilkenny location was drawing in more and more Cork customers — but we always say: you need to see stone in person before you choose it. That’s why we’ve built a dedicated space right here in the “real capital.”
What You’ll See in the Display Area
We’ve packed our Cork display with a wide variety of popular and specialist products, including:
Building stone (dry & wet joint finishes)
Stone cladding for internal and external walls
Natural stone paving and porcelain paving in multiple finishes
Stone cobbles, ideal for driveways and patios
Wall & pier capping, stone steps, and stone window sills
Door surrounds, stone lintels, timber effect cladding
Decorative pebbles and bespoke limestone feature pieces
Whether you’re planning a full garden revamp or choosing a finish for your new build, you’ll find top-quality options here, all sourced from leading European suppliers and natural stone quarries across Ireland, Asia, and beyond.
Specialists in Kilkenny Limestone & Bespoke Cut Stone
One thing that sets Harding apart is our ability to manufacture and customise limestone pieces in-house. We’re proud to be one of Kilkenny Limestone’s top suppliers, and our stone masons, some of the best in the country, craft everything from:
Custom limestone window sills
Entrance steps
Door surrounds
Wall caps and pier caps
One-of-a-kind feature pieces
If you can sketch it, we can make it, and because we make it ourselves, we control the quality from start to finish.
Expert Advice You Can Trust

We officially opened our Little Island display in March 2025, and since then, we’ve connected with so many incredible Cork homeowners and tradespeople. Every week, we’re adding more to the display: new cladding walls, updated paving areas, timber-effect cladding installations, and feature stone step setups.
Take a look at some of our progress images to see how the space is evolving and know that when you visit, you’re seeing the best of what’s available now, not what was trending five years ago. We’re constantly updating to keep Cork on the cutting edge of stone design.
