There were (relatively) few quarries producing slab, so if you are in Birmingham for instance, you could guess that the slab would probably have come from Corris, a lighter bluish grey slate. But then I guess we have to find a colour mix for that, and will it be damp or dry, as that affects the colour again. Not easy!
