secondly have you finished your collection or is there plans for further display racks.
thirdly how much did you spend on wood for it!

game on mate. you show them bricks the respect they deserve!

Stunning work and even better collection

Very swanky cocker!, hope you've patented it before some of the more ruthless brickies beat you to it.
That brick masquerading as a bird box is extremely rare, I think it's an NCB Bluetit if I'm not mistaken.
Watch out for the dreaded black spot, mine succumbed outside, that's why I brought em indoors

Washer? isn't that a bit heathen? Shouldn't a true collector wash each and ever brick by hand? with a toothbrush?

I suspect blood is a tough stain to remove from bricks.

A bonny brick...

Enhanced with a few broken minton tiles
The brick is made by
Oates & Green Limited
Manufacturers of brick, tile, earthenware, sanitary and ceramics products. Partners included William Oates and Donald Oates.
In 1880, they had a stone quarry at Beacon Hill.

In 1905, they were at Beacon Brick Works, Ellen Royd Works, Halifax, and North Bridge Station.

Their urinals were world-famous – examples can still be seen at the Royal Oak.

In December 1894, a hurricane demolished one of their chimneys.

In 19??, they were bought by Leeds Fireclay

wouldn't it be easier just to make a wall out of them? less cutting and arsing around with wood Actually, i've just thought, build an extension and them sit in and look at the bricks.
