Wall Grange

Wall Grange
I have been seeking a brick from this works for a long time, and I am extremely grateful to Tim Lawton for spotting this in a housing demolition area of Hanley. This is Tim's photo and he has kindly allowed me to use it here.

The Wall Grange Staffordshire Brick Co. Ltd. had their works off Park Lane, Wall Grange near Longsdon, Leek. It appears to have operated from the mid 1890s to the early 1950s. I believe that the works used Foden steam lorries at one time and would love to see a photograph of one of those in action, preferably loaded with bricks.
