Full Description
There is a 'Brick Yard' situated here on the 1st edition 25" OS map of c. 1880. (1)
The brick yard is not labelled on the 2nd edition 25" OS map of c. 1900. One small building is still standing, and earthworks that are presumably associated with clay pits are depicted. (2)
The site appears to have been largely redeveloped on modern OS mapping. (3)
