Feelystone BrochureCover of the beautifully designed new Feelystone Monuments Collection brochure

Feelystone Ltd is a premium company producing quality products here in Boyle. Recently I enquired "What makes Feelystone unique?" and the answers came:
1. For over 200 years the Feely family have been working as stone masons, passing craft, skill, knowledge and an "only the best is good enough" ethic from generation to generation.
2. Feelystone wholesale and retail through the 32 counties of Ireland: Grave Memorials, Altar reconstructions, Building cladding and paving stone, countertops and complete graveyard services.
3. Feelystone Ltd currently have showrooms in Boyle, Roscommon and Longford where products (including John Murray quality kitchens) are displayed, advice is available, bookings can be made and brochures are for the taking.
4. Feelystone now add QR barcodes to gravestones that can be captured with a smartphone camera and bring you to a website of your choice.
5. Feelystone's unique Laser etched portraits are popular additions to memorials nowadays.
