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".
I've just acquired some bricks that were part of the chimney in an old weatherboard house in Bendigo. they're mainly frogless: do you have any suggestions about their age or origin?
