Brickwork at Upnor: English bond
Seen in the high wall which encloses not only the castle but also the barracks and Castle House. English bond consists of alternate courses of headers and stretchers - in other words a course of bricks laid with their short ends exposed is followed by a course laid lengthwise, and so on throughout.
My interest in brickwork dates back no further than 2007, so my knowledge is very limited, but I can say that in that time I've noticed many examples of Flemish bond, very few of English. That may be because Flemish bond is simply more conspicuous, being often used to decorative effect: Image, Image
