After receiving many contributions to our ‘Buy a Brick’ Gilwiskaw brook aqueduct appeal over the last few years we recently decided that it would be a good idea to source a supplier to manufacture the bricks we have so far and put them on display at Snarestone Wharf. The idea being that this would make a nice feature for everyone to see until they take their final place around the aqueduct when it is finally built.

A local company, Ibstock brick very kindly agreed to manufacture these bricks for us free of charge meaning that 100% of the funds raised would be able to go towards the manufacture and installation of the aqueduct. For this we are very grateful.

Today we received this first batch of bricks and set about putting them on the recently custom built display as can be seen below. This is just an initial placing of the bricks and we aim to make it more visually appealing in the coming days/weeks.
