Hallas Lane

Another blustery day, but it has improved as the day has gone on, so we did a lovely walk to Hallas Bridge, across the beck and back through chimney field to Leach Lane and home. We saw two other dog walkers , and one young couple, all observing proper social distancing. Heading back up Leach Lane there were some escaped sheep, but Reggie didn’t bat an eyelid as we walked past them. 

Also found another brick , on a walk I have done many times before. I seem to be attracted to them! This is another local one according to the old brick website I keep looking them all up on. This is what is said about this particular one. The works of Rushforth, Adwalton, is officially the 'Drighlington & Adwalton brickworks'; it is simple to find being now owned by a Brewers Fayre Restaurant. The original chimney remains as do a portion of the works buildings, now converted into a Premier Inn & Restaurant. This works is unquestionably the source of [RUSHFORTH][ADWALTON] bricks, very commonly found in Bradford 20th century buildings.’
