Old Brick Wall constructed from locally fired clay. Aylsham, Norfolk. Note erosion of lime mortar from between bricks.


Brick Wall. Aylsham, Norfolk. Older, weather eroded bricks, show stone and pebble impurities that were contained within locally sourced clay. Frost, irregular contraction and expansion, with rainfall and water thrown up from from passing motor vehicles have precipitated the breaking up of the fired bricks. Bricks higher up, and several lower down, are of a more recent replacement.
