History and tradition
Situated adjacent to Wellacre Quarry and renowned for it's outstanding Jurassic lower lias clay, Northcot has its main ingredient for quality facing bricks readily available. The brickworks was established by Spencer Churchill in 1925 and was taken over by its current owner, in 1952.
Present day Northcot
Today, Northcot is a thriving modern business, employing around 50 people and using computer technology to supply a comprehensive range of traditionally made, reclaim and specialist bricks to a network of stockists.

Customer support services include brick quantity advice and 48 hour sample dispatch. Above all Northcot is continually investing in new machinery and with the most recent addition is now able to add to the one-piece "specials" range.
