27/03/10 Bursledon Brickworks
Bursledon Brickworks - Saturday 27th March, 2010
Imagine a Steam driven Britain in 1897. Bursledon Brickworks in Chandlers ford was producing 20 million bricks a year and provided extensive local employment for around 180 people.
The brickworks was a family run concern until after the Second World War when it amalgamated with the Sussex and Dorking Brick Company and became Redlands in 1959. It remained open until 1974 when a combination of factors, including the decline in quality of the clay, problems with its extraction and increased labour and running costs and the interruption caused by the construction of the M27, meant the works were no longer viable and it was closed.
Twenty years passed and the old brickworks fell into a state of dereliction and were in danger of disappearing altogether, when it was saved and given listed status.
As the Dark Encounters Casebook opens for the very first time on this location, little is known about what life was really like working at the brickworks, or who would have been working there, we know young children would have been used for much of the work involved. Join us as we attempt to find out who still remains at this amazing location from all those years ago.
