The Globe Brickworks - perhaps?"

Globe Brickworks, Buckley

1915

I gave the original of this photocopy to someone and it was never returned. I was told that it was of the Globe Brickworks.

************

The original was mounted and in the bottom right hand corner of the mount it reads:

D. Jenkins

Brunswick Road

Buckley

Chester

 

See 154.4 for another photograph by him dated 1913.

There is a D. Jenkins mentioned in one of Wilfred Owens' letters, dated 28th November 1917. This may or may not be him (42.87).

This photo appears in the Archive Photographs series Bwcle/Buckley by Paul F. Mason, Flintshire Record Office. p. 75.

Caption: Excavation and building work in progress at a brickworks in Buckley, c.1915.
