It’s no secret that we love to share everything we know about Whitby Jet with a wide audience. Our favourite way to do this is to host presentations in schools, universities, conferences, shows, TV shows and film. We’ve become very well acquainted with the captivating British stone so there’s not much we don’t know about Whitby Jet.
