Brilliant Today, Ahead of Tomorrow

The iconic London Brick has been in continuous production since 1877 and continues to be made using the same historic manufacturing processes. It’s a brick with an extraordinary legacy, playing a pivotal role in the growth and construction of the railways in the late nineteenth century, and in the construction of almost a quarter of England’s housing in the twentieth century. The choice of 23 different colours and textures makes it easy to find a perfect match for existing brickwork to improve or extend homes.
