Full Description
Elsewhere within the wood there are a number of irregular butt-ended scoops, hollows and banks. The eastern side of the wood may hold remains of quarrying, perhaps for sand and marl. ... the presence of kiln debris and partly fired bricks in the terminal of one of the ditches may link the activity to brickmaking. A brick maker, George Hurwood, is known to have operated in Oldcotes in the 1830s. (1)
