Description
Sepia-toned image of a half a dozen men standing just beneath the roof of an open work area. Two brick making machines are there, with carts stacked with bricks ready to go into the kilns for drying in front of each. The man visible in the rafters on the image left is probably loading the clay into the brick press from the upper floor.
