Somerset Brick and Tile Museum Tour & Demonstration
Somerset Brick & Tile Museum, East Quay, Bridgwater, Somerset, TA6 4DB
The Somerset Brick and Tile Museum tells the story of brick and tile making, one of the many labour-intensive industries once found in Somerset. At the heart of the Museum is one of the only traditional brick kilns to survive in southern England. It was one of six at the former Barham Brothers’ Yard in East Quay, Bridgwater, and was last fired in 1965.
Enjoy a 1.5 hour museum and kiln tour, followed by a fascinating roof tile demonstration to bring the local brick-history to life.
