Monument record MDR7254 - Brickyard (site of), Melbourne Common, Melbourne

A brickyard is named on the 1st ed. 1" OS map of 1836 at approximately SK 371 245, with a building or row of buildings possibly associated with it at the north-eastern end of Bog Lane. (1) On the 1887 map the brickyard is not named and had probably gone out of use by that time although the buildings are still shown and hachures on the map, as well as two small ponds, suggest that evidence for clay extraction was evident. (2) No remains of the brick yard were seen in 1995. (3)
