BRICK WORKS AT BRICK-HILL, BERE REGIS in 1902 |
Situated adjacent to Doddings Farm near the place called
Bedlam, this photograph shows equipment for the making of bricks and tiles and
the four men employed at the works. The London clay (laid down in the Eocene
period of 55-38 million years ago) in that area was suitable for brick manufacture
and the site had its own kiln and railway system for transporting materials at the site.
