Porthwen Brickworks
Amlwch, Anglesey LL67 - Wales, UK

Map
Only the towers and kilns remain from this once busy brickworks sited on Anglesey`s spectacular north coast, a few miles west of Amlwch. The works opened at the beginning of the 20th Century and provided silica bricks from the local yellow clay for the steel industry. The bricks were exported by sea, but tides created difficulties and the works closed at the beginning of the First World War. The remains can be seen from the Anglesey Coast Path. The nearest car park is a Bull Bay on the A5025.
