BARTON UPON HUMBER

711/0/10005 Old kiln (to west), lobby and chimney 05-NOV-04 at William Blyth Ings Yard

GV II Down-draft kiln. Late nineteenth century/early twentieth century. Red brick. This is either the kiln shown in this position on the 1886 OS map, or an early rebuild. It is of machine-made bricks which appear to have been produced at Barton from the 1870's/80's onwards. The kiln has been re-lined and the arched roof renewed (cast in situ in heat resistant material). The arched fire-holes are still visible (sic each side), some bricked up. The kiln was fired by hand until 1975 when a screw feed was introduced, which is still there, in the lean-to 'coal sheds', which were repaired/rebuilt c.1970's as the original. The chimney is late nineteenth century/early twentieth century and the 'night lobby' early twentieth century. Red brick with pantile roof and stack. This has a fireplace inside as it was used by night shift workers to keep watch on the kiln. Contains a Cambridge Temperature recorder. These items form part of this very significant evolved industrial complex which with its associated Blyth yard at Hoe Hill is the only such tilery producing hand-made roof tiles using traditional methods to survive on the Humber Bank and possibly in the country. The process can be seen in its complete form from the mill house processing the clay, through the drying sheds for storing the formed tiles to the kiln for firing them with its office/lobby for the site foreman and for those supervising the kiln firing.
