Great
Used for mixing with cement for posts for new panels

expensive way to buy
Disappointed by the size and suggestion that you need 1 bag of cement for every bag of ballast. The site gave some dimensions of the bag but gave no indication of weight, so overall much smaller than expected.

Small bags of sand and stone ballest.
Ran out of stone from dumpy bags to finish a shed base, needed less than a dumpy bag, so these small bags are perfect, saved having loads left over hanging around, as a thought the sand and stone mix should also be sold in dumpy bags.

4:1 Ballast:Cement - made good concrete
The only downside is that the bags damage easily, upon delivery and before use, also the contents can be VERY wet!
