One of a series of three images showing small scale, local brick manufacture. A line of several dozen people are passing bricks along, hand to hand, to load up a kiln prior to firing. They are probably pupils at the Government African Technical School in Machakos, where Charles Bungey was Acting Principal. Original manuscript caption: Loading Brick Kiln, Machakos Feb 1927.
