Tile identification.

Quick question to the roofers on here. Can you give me a name of the tiles in the pictures please? they are concrete and approx 285mm wide.

They look like Marley Moderns. They are slightly wider tho, 330mm.

 

[ladylola]

Is the 330mm the total width of the tile? I should have said that the 285mm measurement I gave was measured joint to joint.

 

[noseall]

Either Marley Moderns or Russels Grampians.

A quick look at the back of the tile will reveal all.

Thanks for the answers it'll save time sourcing them if I can do it over the phone. There are only 4 tiles on the roof that need replacing so I'm looking at buying half a dozen.
Noseall, I see you're in Staffs too any recommendations for decent suppliers? I'm not far from Lichfield.

I have eighty Russels Grampians (tudor blacks) stashed in G&J roofing yard in Rugeley!
However, Tippers are pretty good.

Just as a side issue what is the pitch on that roof it looks a bit shallow, but that may be the camera playing tricks.

Thanks noseall, I was in tippers the morning before I looked at that roof but he ho.
Catlad , it's probably the way I was holding the camera, stood on a chair with the camera held above me paparazzi style. The pitch seems ok although to me at least the bottom course looks like it could have done with an additional battern to raise the lower edge. Either way it's been all ok until recently when the window cleaner broke a couple of tiles getting to the upstairs windows.
