Full Description
Remains of former tile works, dating from the mid 19th Century. There is a rectangular brick kiln of normal tile works type, with lean-to covers for fire-holes. Remains of ancillary buildings and a square section brick chimney also survive. An engine house and boiler house can still also be seen. A light railway carried the clay down to the mill from the pit circa 100 m to the west. The works are depicted on the OS maps of 1846 and 1888.
