Walked past the local school on my way to the store when i saw this on one of the walls. I kinda liked how the patterns and colours of the boards, bricks, door and stone wall looked together.
First time I've seen this brick since I donated it 15 years ago or so. I felt like I was looking for a grave marker searching through the hundreds of bricks at this brick plaza.

The Furness Brick & Tile Co Ltd has been established for over 145 years and remains a family owned business. The works can manufacture a vast range of standard and bespoke bricks to order. The transverse arch continuous kiln is still fired with coal and this is the scene on the kiln top.
There were three of these brick circles in this area – I think they were made by school children on an outdoor activity.

Test photos of bricks, how boring they are. Who cares how a camera/lens renders bricks, other than bricklayers?

In case it wasn't obvious before, this officially certifies TJ as insane. The thing weighs like 70 pounds and it not only has a functional crane, but it drives!
This year's Brick Fiesta was a bit underwhelming compared to the last two, and I didn't exactly help matters by hardly building all year. But had a good time hanging out with Steve.
This is about 7am just on the outskirts of Kathmandu. The group on the left are children - I'm guessing aged 8 - 16 - waiting to start carrying the baked bricks that the men on the right are uncovering.
This is a mural a few blocks away from my place. I'm not sure if that's suppose to be a ghost or a memory or what, but I like it.

Sambor Prei Kuk - Prasat Sambor.
Sambor Prei Kuk is a collection of 7th century temple ruins located in Kampong Thom province about 120km from Siem Reap town. Consisting of dozens of impressive brick
prasats in semi-cleared jungle, many ruins displaying excellent examples of early Khmer art, this pre-Angkorian complex is a important destination for the serious temple visitor. Sambor Prei Kuk are the ruins of the city of Isanapura, the capital of the pre-Angkorian Khmer kingdom known from Chinese chronicles as Zhendla (Chenla.) The city was constructed by Isanavarman I (r. 616 - 635AD) when Zhendla was at its apex more than 150 years before the rise of Angkor. There are three main complexes: Preah Sambor/North Group; Preah Tor (‘Lion Temple’)/Central Group; Preah Yeay Poun/South Group as well as a number of minor ruins. The main temple complexes are walled, containing a number of prasats in differing states of ruin. Some of the carvings on the prasats’ lintels, columns and pilasters are in very good shape and display wonderfully detailed examples of pre-Angkorian artistry. Large bas-reliefs rendered in brick on the prasats and compound walls represent some of the earliest use of this art form in Khmer art. Octagon shaped prasats are another comparatively unique architectural feature found at Sambor Prei Kuk. Ruin N7 in the North Group and several of the structures in the South Group are octagonal and in relatively good condition.
A brick from the Star Brick Co amongst rubble from the old Rifle Club. Star Brick were just down the road on Llantarnam Road.
A former employee of the Star Brick & Tile Co on Llantarnam Road in the 1970s has stated that Star Brick & Tile had factories in Ponthir (the Head Office), Malpas, Allt Yr Yn in Newport, Risca and Morriston, Swansea. Kelly’s of 1881 lists “The Star Brick and Tile Co Ltd, Llanvihangel-Llantarnam” (on Llantarnam Road, Cwmbran); in 1937 Kelly’s lists “Star Brick & Tile Co Ltd, Llantarnam Road, Cwmbran; Caerleon, Newport; and Risca, Newport”. The DOQ 1941-42 lists “Star Brick & Tile Co Ltd”, in the DOQ 1957-58 there is an entry “Star Brick & Tile Co Ltd; works: Penrhos works, Caerleon; Malpas Road, Newport; Altyryn, Newport; Waunvawr Works, Risca, Llantarnam Works”. The DOQ for 1973 is the last entry for the Star Brick & Tile Co, although “National Star Ltd Newport” continues to be mentioned up until the IDWM for 1978, its last entry.
It now appears possible that in the 1960s, a common die was used by various works in the Star group, with individual works having identifying letters on the die: L = Llantarnam (i.e. Cwmbran), RC = Risca (WaunFawr works), M = Malpas Road works (Newport) and G = Graig Brick Co works, Morriston.
