Phoenix Brickworks, Barrow Hill

The company's original name was Campbell Brickworks and was built adjacent to the now defunct Campbell colliery. Following successive Nationalisation and De-nationalisation programmes involving both the Coal Board and the British Steel Corporation it was sold by BSC to a private company, Innes Lee Industries, in 1971. In 1988 Innes Lee sold their brickworks to Tarmac Building Materials, who ran the site for four years before its closure in 1992. The company was then purchased by the present owners in May 1993, and reopened as Phoenix Brick Company Limited.

The kilns are fired on methane extracted from landfill in the old claypits.
