Making Bricks in Colonial and Early Republic Maryland

Dr. James Gibb will present on the topic of historical brickmaking, with a special focus on what bricks can tell us about Maryland history.

Occasional loads of brick were imported into Colonial Maryland, but most were made locally, often on the building sites for which they were intended. This illustrated presentation describes preindustrial brickmaking, the products recovered archaeologically, and the kinds of information we can glean about the past from these seemingly banal, but varied building blocks of Maryland history.
