Berry Hill Brick

The Berry Hill Brickworks was situated adjacent to Berry Hill Colliery between Fenton and Hanley in North Staffordshire. By the 1870s bricks were being manufactured by the colliery owner William Bowers and production continued into the 1970s in the hands of Berry Hill Brickworks Ltd. This particular example was manufactured at Kingsley near Cheadle (Staffs) at a brickworks absorbed by the Berry Hill company.
