Claypark Bricks tells the story of the Lews Brick Works in Claypark, Garrabost - a venture that first began in 1847 and at its height produced 26,000 red bricks each week. Over 150 years later, local children tried their hand at recreating the famous Lewis icon during a community project run by the Cnoc Dubh Residents Association.
