Minninglow Brick Kiln

3D Model

Adjacent to the former Cromford & High Peak Railway, which is now the High Peak Trail, is the remains of this brickworks which produced refractory bricks using high quality silica sand obtained from pits which are now the ponds visible down the slope. There were originally two kilns and ancilliary buildings. A branch siding from the CHPR went into the works and a tramway connected the works to the sandpits along the line of the track going downhill. The orange and white markers are each 2 metres long. The base of the “tee” points to the north. DJI Mini2 drone.
