Edwin Glossop, Ambergate

Edwin Glossop, Ambergate
Edwin Glossop appears to have established his brickworks at Ambergate, just south of the railway junction at Bullbridge, in the early 20th century. Glossop's siding is listed here in the 1912 handbook of railway stations. Raw materials for the bricks came on a tramway from quarries up the hill to the east with an incline down to the main line sidings. The works appears on maps until the 1980s.

The burning to the right end of this example is due to it having been used to line a limekiln at Ilam in Staffordshire.
