Bursledon Brickworks Industrial Museum is all set to become one of the key visitor attractions in the South. Come and see how brick making made the leap from small-scale production to 20 million bricks a year. The fully restored and working machinery helped them to win the coveted Institute of Mechanical Engineering Heritage Award in 2011 and on Open Days they can show it all running as it was when it ceased producing bricks. On-site you can see the patented method adopted to dry the bricks and the huge kiln block that was used to fire them ready for collection. The museum has other clay-based collections on site and lots of opportunities on offer which makes a visit both enjoyable and educational.
