The route is very nice to drive, but unfortunately the cars and motorcycles that are speeding here sometimes disturb you and you have to be careful that nothing happens.

To extract the clay, a piece of land was stripped (excavated): after the top layer of approx. 20 cm had been removed, the clay was excavated to a maximum depth of 2 metres. Until the early 1900s, the workers did this with a spade and a wheelbarrow. The clay was usually excavated and excavated in the autumn, part of the winter and spring. In the summer period, the bricks were then shaped and fired.
Apart from the fact that the excavation of the pits was very hard work, the yield was of course not high either. The mechanization
resulted in this. Around 1900, an excavator entered the stone industry. That was a dredger equipped with a
adjustable bucket loading construction. The machine ran on rails, so that the machine could be moved regularly when another piece had to be excavated.
• The excavator was often driven by an electric motor. The power for the excavator of the brick factory "De 0oil"
came from the transformer house, which is located on the Hezelstraat.
