A rare survivor at Little Stocking - a kiln for making bricks. There is a flooded clay pit round the back and an adjoining smithy and saw bench set up. This is the view from the road but we were allowed in to have a look and were grateful for this rare opportunity. The structure is not listed but the house opposite is built of bricks fired in this kiln.
