Clay facing brick types
Stock bricks
These are machine-moulded bricks with a ‘frog’
indent. The use of sand to release the brick from
the mould contributes to its soft appearance and slightly
irregular shape.
Handmade bricks
These are hand thrown bricks with a distinctive creased
texture.
Machine-moulded handmade bricks
These are machine thrown bricks with a subtle creased
texture.
Waterstruck bricks
These are moulded bricks released from the mould by
water. They are solid and contain no holes or frogs.
The use of water, together with the wetness of the
clay, produces a smooth and lipped edge or arris.
Extruded/Wirecut bricks
These bricks are made by extruding clay through a
dye and cutting the brick-shaped column with a wire.
This process produces a smooth brick, more regular
in shape, with sharp clean edges. Surface textures
can be applied by adding sand or texturing the face.
