Default Slate for the garden.

Just moved into my first house

But the rear garden is a bit of a mess so im going to spend some time landscaping it. I would like to buy some slate to spread across part of it.

Can someone tell me a good place to get it from???

Ive heard b&q aren't exactly cheap.

Don't go for B&Q or homebase.. charge a fortune.. Found a little garden centre nearer to home that sells it cheaper than the big stores
