A really special and unexpected find for me was this brick from Norbury Colliery which was situated between Hazel Grove and High Lane on what is now the A6. I have for 30+ years been seeking an example from this brickworks, which was located behind the Robin Hood pub on the north side of the main road from the colliery. The colliery and brickworks was operated by the firm of Clayton & Brooke from the 1830s until all was closed in 1892.

When I built my first house in 1975, I bought a truck and trailer load of hand made bricks from Mexico. They are called Mexican Fire Bricks. When I started my second house in 1982, I bought another truck and trailer load to add to the remainder of the first load. Total, there were 44 pallets and about 40,000 bricks. I paid 8 cents a piece for them - delivered! I now have just one pallet left.
