Former Creasy's Brickyard ruins |
Registered Name |
Brick Kiln Ruins - former Creasys Brickyard |
Significance |
The remaining structures of Creasy's Brickyard are of significance as a scarce relic in the region of a very early brickmaking industry. Brickmaking commenced in the 1840s and it is believed that this brickyard was established at Armagh in the 1850s. A new kiln was built in 1904 with a capacity of 30,000 bricks. The brickyard closed in 1964 and most of the sheds were removed. (Lower North Heritage Survey 1983) |
