The brick kiln is the last surviving structure from Barham’s Brick and Tile Works. Barham Brothers were one of many Bridgwater firms producing clay products for export across the world.
The works were established on the east bank of the River Parrett in 1858 and remained in operation until 1965. The site was cleared in 1980 except for one of the kilns.
