1 gen 1694 anni - brick

Descrizione:

A building material formed of clay, moulded and baked in a kiln. The word is first recorded in <i>c.</i>1440 (OED) and Yorkshire examples date from the sixteenth century: 1531 <i>Pro Flanders teyle et bryke to Mr Kirbye howse, 23s</i>, York (SS35/105); <i>c</i>.1535 <i>a fayre chimney of brikkes,</i> Swine (YAJ9/329); <i>c</i>.1590 <i>A thowsande bricke for a Chimney there</i>, North Newbald (YAJ36/334); 1694 <i>To the Brickmakers for Earnest 1s</i>, Tong Hall (Mss4d/3); 1739 <i>10 days leading coals to Brickiln £2 10s 0d; Jo. Cook note for making Bricks £73 8s 0d</i>, Whitley Hall (WBE/1/12). In Beverlay the bricklayers had their own guild, evidently from before 1426 (YRS84/71) and <i>William Kitchinge bricklaier</i> died in Beverley in 1590 (YRS22/74). However, ‘bricks’ may have been described as tiles in that earlier period (BTD55).
