Carrière souterraine de calcaire.

This area is really neglected, with the factory walls covered in graffiti and Buddleia left growing from the most unlikely places in amongst the brickwork. In time it'll break it apart as it grows.

But I love it and recently I took a walk with my partners' two Retrievers through town and several of the outlying villages. It was just the kind of day to keep on walking, so we did and what great company they were!

Oski, the older of the two stopped about 15 times on the way back, refusing to move, but later on I encouraged him to only take short breathers before walking on and it was as though he heard and understood me!

When we got home I traced our route on Google maps and found that we'd walked for 12 miles.

An old brickworks that hides many a secret and where everything is still in its place as it was left.

Looking towards the old round kilns.

The brickworks were first built by Charles E Tidy.

We stumbled into Christiania while we were in Copenhagen. Lots of men in full face balaclavas shouting no photos as they sold some green powdery stuff! But I got a few snaps of the 'residential' parts, this one was with my phone which was a little easier to shoot with.

Well not really as this is the first time I have spotted him . He is in fact on top of a garage roof and taken from the other side of the road . He is looking out over the parapet wall on top of a garage - the same one that has the " Tommy " attached ( see first comment box ) .

Happy Gorgeous Green Thursday ;0) Taken at Polesden Lacey NT.

The main wall to the left was supported by a number of buttresses with windows.

You’ll have to go a long way to see better…

… polychromatic brickwork.

 

The main wall is built in the strongest bond there is, English bond.

There seems to be two types of red bricks used. Both I reckon are local to Norwich. The red bricks that are highest up are showing signs of spalling.

The blue bricks look like ‘Staffordshire blues’ one of the top two grade 1 engineering bricks that you can get (the other is the Accrington Nori).

 

So much detail and great workmanship has gone into this wall. The semi circular arch, the plinths, the squints, the Corbels and dentil courses.

 

This is an absolutely amazing wall.

 

Photo taken by my wife, in Norwich, whilst I was at the football on Saturday. So o haven’t seen this wall in person.

 

Super bricklayers !!
