Since the early European settlement of NSW, bushrock has been used in landscaping and gardens to re-create natural bush settings, build fences or retaining walls, line pools, create waterfalls and other features, and as a base for orchids, lichens and mosses to grow on.
Helidon Sandstone is fine grained and relatively strong as a building material, it also has an unusual banding that often forms concentric rings and unusual colourings.
