Marsh slabs and old town slabs

Out towards the marsh the slabs are agricultural and equestrian: stable and field shelter bases, wash-down aprons, feed and machinery pads, hardstandings outside a barn, and floors inside outbuildings that have never had one. Areas follow what has to stand on them.

Above and along the high street the same service is small and enclosed. Courtyard slabs, garden and store bases, and internal slabs where an old floor is coming up in a building that predates any thought of vehicle access. Volumes there are a fraction of the marsh jobs.

Access, discharge and how far the chute reaches in Hythe

A slab goes in as one continuous placement, so the whole area has to stay within reach of something for the duration.

Climbing from the seafront and the canal towards the old town, the gradient rises and the lanes above the high street narrow. Standing room is limited, and a large vehicle that commits to one of those lanes has very few options if there turns out to be nowhere to discharge. The honest answer on most of that side is a smaller vehicle placed deliberately, with the last part of the run barrowed or hosed.

On the marsh the width stops being the issue and the surface takes over. Single-track roads with passing places will take a vehicle in, and once it arrives at a smallholding it needs firm ground to stand on rather than a soft verge. The far side of a stable yard is frequently further from the last hard standing than the yard looks.

★ **Worth reading alongside this page.** Where a hardstanding or a yard slab is being poured over ground that has just been levelled and the area is not fixed until you are standing in it, our county page on volumetric and on-site mixed concrete covers the pay-for-what-you-use option that most of our approved suppliers offer. Hythe has no local page for it.
