A totally amazing sight, this! This is a brick kiln, built in the late 17th or early 18th century. Nettlebed produced first tiles and then bricks from the medieval times until the 20th century.

Cykling

A rare example of a 17th century bottle-shaped brick kiln
From medieval times until early in the 20th century, Nettlebed was the centre of a thriving brick business. The bricks were produced in bottle-shaped kilns. One remains in the middle of the village, a very distinctive landmark. It is the only bottle kiln preserved in the country today, and was built in the late 17th or early 18th century. There would have been several kilns of this type in Nettlebed, but the others were removed when the brick-making industry came to an end.
