The Yallourn Brickworks was established by the State Electricity Commission in 1921 to produce bricks for the construction of the Yallourn power station and associated Yallorne town. W H (Dad) Brewer managed the Yallourn brickworks for the SEC. When demand decreased he leased the brickworks up to the late 1940's changing the "YALLOURN" stamp to "BREWER".
